i'm just feelin' it

With my ancestors who jumped from the ships. Because they knew that death was better than bondage

[twilitgoddess]

Can you explain why the difference between Lock in and sticking to a decision and yes I had a great and I'm hoping the same for you 💜

Good morning, and thank you! May we all have a great day! 🤍

So, I get this one a lot - again, I don't use LOA terminology like a lot of you, but a decision is JUST that - a decision.

I'll decide I want someone to text me and they will. I want a package or my DoorDash to show up early, they will. I want a call from a certain company or a certain outcome at a meeting? I get it. A traffic light change. Seeing a certain bird I like in the morning. Getting a discount at the weed store I like, or that a certain thing that's not usually in stock is ~magically~ in stock... because I wanted it to be.

Or I'll want money for something so an art or manifestation client will show up, or I'll get a Twitch donation, WHATEVER - there's nothing to "stick to", about ANY of these things.

I want it, and it's real. In the moment.

I don't even THINK about these things anymore - manifestation is a rhythm of life, of controlling your reality.

There is nothing to "stick to" or "wait for" unless you think you still think something particular has to happen for you to get what you want (which is never true).

"Locking in" and "sticking to a decision" tells me, at least in my experience with my clients, is that you don't actually believe it's happened, and so you are waiting for it to happen.

You DO want it to happen, and REALLY badly - but you don't actually have the conviction to KNOW that things are different, so they never come.

It's just affirming and persisting, imo, and as we all know - I don't teach that!

You tell yourself you're "locking in and sticking to a decision!" because you decided REALLY hard and believe you're seeing "signs it's coming", but if that were true... why hasn't it eventuated in the real world?

Why is it taking you so long? Why don't you ACTUALLY have it yet?

What's so "unbelievable" about what you want that you have to wait for it, that you have to "remind" yourself it's "coming"?

Your reality is changeable by your mind ALONE - you don't need to "stick to a decision" or "lock in", you need to literally just choose that things are different now and they will be. Instantly.

THAT'S IT. That's LITERALLY IT.

It's the same for anything - money, SP, the job you want, thought transmission, controlling weather, WHATEVER.

You could get good news about ANYTHING you wanted at any time, and all you'd have to do is decide things are different.

There's nothing to "stick to", and this is why I don't teach methods - it keeps people on a hamster wheel of HOPING, of gaslighting themselves that it's "going to happen".

And then it takes weeks, they lose hope and faith in themselves, they wonder if the law "doesn't work", ect ect... it's a lot of untangling, and that's why I just don't bother with all the terminology and mind games people play to try and hype themselves up for what they want.

Any of my clients could tell you that all you need is trust in yourself and the ability to change your world, and that's why I teach instant manifestation/self and shed everything else - you literally DO NOT need ANY of it.

You CAN have things now, and manifest instantly if you choose to. But that would require that being a part of your world-view in the first place, and again - that's self concept!

So if you're to "lock in" about anything? It should be yourself.

Anyway, I know this was long-winded - but I hope it helps! 🤍

about manifesting and emotions

just an fyi because i've explained this to a few clients today, but your emotions do not have ANY bearing on your manifestation unless you allow them to.

you can get mad, sad, angry, frustrated - even scared!

but if you think that means that things won't happen for you, or that you've failed, or that it CAN'T happen because of those feelings, well... you're the one deciding that. you're the one deciding you have no conviction.

YOU'RE the one allowing your feelings to rule you, and therefore your world.

it is human to feel!

but it is the god in you that must transcend it, and know that NOTHING you feel or experience can shake your life or the decisions you've made.

unless you allow them to... and why would you do that?

[twilitgoddess]

tangentially, this is partially why i hate addressing the issue of 'time' - there IS no time in manifestation unless you perceive there to be, and you guys do this a LOT.

and it's not even about "looking for it" or checking your phone for texts or WHATEVER, though those ARE problems...

you guys do it to yourselves EVERY time you think something has to happen before you get your manifestation, every time you worry about 'what ifs'... you allow ALL these other choices and fears to even be possibilities, so what you want CAN'T happen!

and you wanna know why?

BECAUSE YOU KEEP CREATING THESE STUPID CONDITIONS THAT KEEP LENGTHENING THE AMOUNT TIME IT TAKES FOR YOU TO GET WHAT YOU WANT INSTEAD OF LITERALLY JUST GIVING IT TO YOURSELF WITHOUT GUILT OR WORRY OR THE NEED TO SEE SOMETHING HAPPEN FIRST.

YOU LITERALLY DO NOT HAVE TO KEEP DOING THIS TO YOURSELVES.

STOP IT.

The 5 senses are a lot more limited than you think 🤯🤔

Lester Levenson said "you're trying to express infinity through a tiny ego, and it hurts."

Yes it does hurt, it's extremely uncomfortable! And here's why.

Growing up, toddlers are taught object permanence, meaning that whether an object can be sensed or not, it has no impact on it's existence. Before learning this, for example, the toddler's parent may leave the room, and now the toddler is stressed out and crying because now the parent doesn't exist to them. For the toddler, the only things that exists are the items in the room. This is why object permanence is taught, so you can know that things still exist even if you can't sense them with the 5 senses.

See how the 5 senses limit you? Your ego looks around at its surroundings and assumes that it doesn't have whatever it wants, but does it even see the full picture? The ego is stressed out, depressed, angry, whatever negative emotion you can think of, and it becomes like the toddler all over again.

"I can't see it, it doesn't exist!"

How can the ego really know if it doesn't exist? It's view is limited to whatever is directly surrounding it, such as the TV or couch, or whatever is in the same room! When there's a whole world, a whole universe out there that it's unaware of.

When you place so much importance on "seeing things physically" you've identified with ego and not as the limitless, infinite consciousness who already has everything and already is everything! Whatever your ego is experiencing right now is so small and insignificant and is literally ONE possibility out of billions, trillions, an infinite amount.

Are you really going to stress out over 1 in a billion 🤔

Athena blessed her with the ability to protect herself and men beheaded her for it.

[takealookatyourlife]

[bloodasredlipstick-deactivated2]

That’s actually a really intetesting intpretation of it I hadn’t thought of. Most people seem to think Athena turned Medusa into a gorgon as punishment for defiling her temple, but thinking that she did so to protect her from being abused again is interesting and I like it!

[gabyluvsxena]

Athena’s hands were tied. Yes, she was a powerful Goddess, but she was very much a woman in a “boys club”, and the true offending party (don’t think for a moment that Athena blamed Medusa for being raped in the temple, Athena knows better) held all the cards. There was nothing that Athena could do to punish the true criminal, and she was expected to punish Medusa by everyone else. What’s a Goddess to do when she cannot punish those who need to be punished and is expected to punish not only the truly innocent party, but her most beloved follower? Use that incredible brain power she had to protect Medusa at all costs, and of course the men would see it as punishment, to be have her beauty stripped from her and sent to live in the shadows. Medusa should have been KILLED for supposedly defiling the temple, whether she truly did or not, but she was given the gift of life, and the ability to protect herself and her daughters (who she bore thanks to Poseidon). This is why Medusa’s image was used to signify woman’s shelters and safe houses.

Medusa means “guardian; protectress”, and she was.

my personal bangtan cheat sheet AKA what i need to keep in mind when drawing them :^)

[miniature-stigmata]

this one’s for all the fat girls who’ve cried in dressing rooms 💗

[drst]

You’re fine. The clothes are made to be easy to manufacture on machines, not for bodies. The clothes suck, not you.

[darthmelyanna]

They’re also manufactured to look attractive on hangers, and very few of us are shaped like hangers. You’re fine.

[moodyehudi-deactivated20180519]

😱😰😭😭😭😭😭😭😭thank u please more of this type of body positivity I need it

[chickenonabicycle]

Legit though! I’m a hobbyist seamstress and these are my experiences when shopping mainstream:

For example, most H&M blouses these days don’t even have boobdarts. Which means they will sit awkwardly on literally anyone with boobs, no matter the size. But on hangers or when folded on display? They look fab as fuck. Because hangers don’t have boobs. And the models chosen to show them on the catwalk are usually chosen for their lack of boobage too (unless it’s for lingerie), other requirements including ridiculous size and weight requirements. As for the average (EU available) clothing shops, the worst offender I’ve encountered yet was Zara. Everything’s way too long and way too flat: clearly aimed to look good on the catwalk models but not intended for normal people. At all.

Also sizes are just numbers. Shopping online has taught me that I’m a European M, an American XS-S, and a Japanese L-XL. And then these sizes even vary from shop to shop in the same country: I’m an XL at Apples but an S at Lola&Liza, for example. They’ve also been reducing the sizes of these numbers throughout the years to make people feel bad about themselves and to sell more weight-loss products. Don’t let a number get you down, it does not define you.

So please don’t feel bad about yourself when shops refuse to cater to your size. The clothes they sell are not aimed at real human beings. They are the ones in the wrong here, not you!

A Look™

[the-insomniac-writes]

Imagine Shuri calling T'Challa Simba

[timandstepharebamfs]

Erik “Killmonger” Stevens is a great villain. The movie shows how he got to where he is as a rage-filled monster and, while not excusing his overly violent, aggressive behaviour, Coogler does a great job of demonstrating how justified Erik is in his actions to the character himself and to the audience. The audience is able to empathise with the hardships Erik’s faced and see that somehow, someway Erik could be saved. 

That being said, I’m not gonna lie when I say his abs don’t help in connecting him to the audience because, oh boy …

“Imagine that the world is made out of love. Now imagine that it isn’t. Imagine a story where everything goes wrong, where everyone has their back against the wall, where everyone is in pain and acting selfishly because if they don’t, they’ll die. Imagine a story, not of good against evil, but of need against need against need, where everyone is at cross-purposes and everyone is to blame.”        ― Richard Siken
