it seems to me that respecting things is caused by learning that disrespecting them causes death. most important to respect is the will to live, if you casually entertain suicidal thoughts like it's no big deal like 'oh just kill me now' it leads to trying to murder your self. disrespecting someone or their efforts is trying to kill them, because it's telling them their life efforts are worthless. at the same time you have to be critical because allowing everything someone says to influence your self is negligent. so you have to lie sometimes out of compassion. respect for many things comes naturally after you see the cause and effect of how neglecting to respect them leads to murder. and if you believe everything is essentially speech and the world is just symbols talking then everything has power and you need to be careful to avoid killing at all times.

i don't think that's possible without being really depressed. but to answer your question, in the view i described you can learn to respect life by seeing how disrespect can cause you to get hurt. whether it's your thoughts or another person or a tool, if you play with fire you get hurt and learn this lesson.
