Do you start off by saying "For me"? Or do you assume that your way of thinking is right for you and therefor right for everyone?

For me is what I say. Others may think another way is best but for me Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. In fact He is best for us ALL.

If it's something that I believe, I say so. If it's something that I know, then I just make the statement. If it's a fact, it's right for me, it's right for you and it's right for everyone else. Just because someone chooses not to believe a fact doesn't make it any less true. If someone thinks 2+2=5, it will still equal 4 and it will always equal 4. It doesn't matter what people think. People's beliefs don't change facts.

Everyone is entitled to their own thoughts or beliefs
Just because something may be right for one person it may not be right for another : )
We are all unique and therefore we can not all think the same, how boring would that be
I think it is very healthy for the Soul for personal growth to have an open mind and to question everything, as to closing your mind then opens the EGO to stop searching for answers

I usually just say "I believe" or "in my opinion". If I wasn't to start off in such a way, I'd just assume that others know that I'm simply stating MY beliefs, rather than what I think everyone else should believe.

Do you assume that your way of thinking (which would seem to include that people shouldn't think that their way of thinking is right for everyone) is right for everyone? Are you trying to make an objective claim of truth for subjectivism?
Truth is universal; that is, there are not things that are true to you or me that are not true for everyone. The same spiritual and physical laws apply to everyone. That doesn't mean everyone believes them to be true, but reality isn't dependent on belief.

Since people are in different places in their walk with God...no faith is a perfect fit for every person on the Earth. On the other had, the truth is the truth...and people shouldn't shy away from the truth just because someone else is not in the same place.
To reconcile this...each of us should be considerate of other people and listen to the Spirit to know how to proceed with sharing what they know.
Just my opinion.

I always talk about something by relating it to me and my personal beliefs. What I feel is true may not necessarily be true for others. Who am I to say everyone feels the same?

Either I am right or I am wrong. Either they are right or they are wrong. Something is not right for one person but wrong for someone else. Because I base my beliefs on evidence I am more likely to be right than those who don't base their beliefs on evidence.

If it is a belief, yes. But not everything I speak about is belief.

Well, I just go into saying whatever. I do mention how my beliefs have helped me and how they can help whoever I am speaking to.

It depends on where the operand evaluates to on a scale
of subjectivity and objectivity. More subjective, is more
probable to be started with "for me", "in my opinion",
etc. The scale of measure is not likely to be the same for all
people, but for practicality it should suffice.
