I don't know how I would integrate this with my programming work, where it is VERY important my inner voice differentiates between "I know" and "I think" and "It seems like" - were I to use more factual statements, I'd go wrong faster and end up taking longer to debug things...
Hedging your internal voice is not a good idea. Likely to lead to confusion. When you hedge (or don't), you already know what you mean. Other people don't. It's a communication barrier, not one I would tackle inside your head.
