3 things Iâd tell past me who was struggling with shifting/manifesting
This is pretty harsh and definitely not sugar-coated, because itâs legitimately what I would tell MYSELF in the past. If you donât like yelling ⊠please skip this one lol. Iâm the pseudo-target, because she had some ridiculous views of herself, her journey and reality. Written after reading some old journal entries, so this is what Iâd tell that past version of me to snap myself out of it if I couldâknowing what I know now that I shift frequently. Could be helpful for someone else too, but donât take anything to heart, because these are pretty opinion-specific <3
1) Why are you accepting anything else?
Shifting isnât some magical teleportation to another place. Manifesting isnât gaining magical powers and being done with it. Itâs a metamorphosis, like it or not. Itâs an identity-level mutation, because now youâre no longer a part of the crowd who has accepted one singular reality. Or that manifestation is âtoo good to be true.â Hello?? Thatâs not you anymore!
Why are you accepting that youâre just lost and the answer is out there somewhere? That youâre this doomed person whoâs been trying for years? Why are you accepting this identity?? And donât even come at me with the excuses that youâve âdone everything but nothing works,â because right there you ARE accepting it as an identityâsaying âhey yeah, Iâm the person who keeps trying but nothing works and Iâm lost.â Why is THAT the identity youâre giving yourself??
For lack of better words: have some dignity! Lead with arrogant pride! Be stubbborn! Inflate your ego and refuse to label whatever youâre going through as failure. This is not the time to be humble and accepting, even in definition. âIâm someone whoâs struggling and canât get anything right.â HELLO?
I know youâre someone whoâs honest and logical, so letâs put aside the law of assumption for a second here and look at it âlogicallyâ because it is basic.
If you say youâre stuckâyouâll talk, think, and act like someone whoâs stuck.
If you say youâre lostâyouâll start moving through life like a person whoâs lost, second-guessing and looking for signs instead of making decisions. Because if you accept that youâre lost, youâre going to take the actions and think like someone whoâs lost.
The way you translate reality cues your mind; your mind cues your behavior; your behavior cues your reality. Like an ouroboros. Yes, Clover, how unfortunate it is that you canât act like you donât know shit 24/7, and then MAGICALLY KNOW SHIT. YOUâRE NOT EVEN MANIFESTING TO MAGICALLY KNOW SHIT WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING.
The moment you decide youâre not stuck, not lost, not tryingâyou will start to take actions accordingly. This means that, for example, youâll decide what needs to be done next instead of searching for the key outside of you. Youâll perceive the lack, mixed signals or signs as part of your intention being fulfilled. Instead of treating it as evidence that you're stuck or don't know what you're doing.
But then you sit there and think âGee, I already did everything. And everything I do wonât give me results, so I need a key, an answer, a light.â WHAT DO YOU MEAN?? WHAT DO YOU MEAN?? THATâS THE IDENTITY YOUâRE GOING TO ACCEPT?? Youâre going to excuse this as âOh, but this isnât helpful because I donât know what to do anyway, so I guess Iâm stuck.â
I need you. To wake up. Like actually wake up.
2) Youâve been given the key a hundred damn times already. A hundred.
Sometimes itâs called the law of assumption, sometimes itâs called letting go and trusting itâs already yours, sometimes itâs a method that tells you to just know itâs already working, sometimes itâs âact as if,â sometimes itâs âlive in the end,â sometimes itâs âpersist,â sometimes itâs try to achieve this altered state through trial and error. But itâs all the same truth dressed in different costumes: what you want is already yours in some form, and you align by knowing that. YOU. No one else can do it for you.
You sitting there wearing the identity of someone whoâs lost, hopeless, searching, waiting for a savior will not cut it. It never did. Itâs not about effortâbecause effort is hit or miss, and sometimes it happens in the moments you least expect it, without lifting a finger.
But do you know why that happens without lifting a finger?? Itâs because for a split second, you dropped the damn story and you werenât TRYING, you were beingâeven if you were being exhausted and over it. At least you werenât begging and rehearsing that youâre the âone who canât shift.â You just existed in a state where the prediction of failure didnât interfere anymore. Why else do you think you can go to sleep randomly, not expecting anything, and shift?? Manifest without trying??
There is no time, no space, no justification for dropping the assumption, intention, identity, observationâwhatever name you give itâjust because it didnât yield instant results. None. Zero. Why? Because, again, this shit is a metamorphosis. You are no longer the person constrained to one reality, one outcome, one timeline. YOU UNCOVERED THE TRUTH.
Every time that you slip back into the old story, youâre rehearsing your defeat. I do not mean you have to ignore your reality, or your circumstances. Thatâs not necessary. Whatâs necessary is waking up and altering how you perceive whatâs going on around you. Because the moment you intend to have something:
3) You are never not in the process of getting what you want. Never. Ever ever ever ever.
You may hate the term âprocess,â let this be my filthy propaganda to indoctrinate you. Please let shifting be a process. Let manifestation be a process. Because the answer to everything is to treat it like itâs part of the process. And I do mean everything.
âThe shifting method didnât work.â Part of the process.
âIâm manifesting this person but they wonât text me back.â Part of the process.
âI fell asleep before finishing the method.â Part of the process.
âI feel nothingâs happening.â Still the process.
âI reacted. I cried. I spiraled.â All of it, part of the process.
Every high, every relapse, every agonizing day that feels like nothingâs changing and you donât know what youâre doingâpart of the process. Why? Because:
The second you decide youâre in the reality where it works and start acting accordingly. You claim every single thing that happens as part of the process confirming that your intention is being fulfilled, so thatâs now the world you live in.
Awareness begins filtering the world through that lens. Literally. Because youâve signaled to your awareness that âhey weâre in the reality where we get what we intend, so everything we see from now on is a part of that,â now the yellow brick road path opens up and reality has no choice BUT to lead you where you want.
The trick is to stop treating whatâs happening as a mistake. The moment you drop that label, your awareness stops scanning for failure, starts validating progress and observing reality accordingly.
Intention is actionâ not metaphorically, but functionally. The instant you set an intention, awareness shifts its focal point and reorganizes perception, behavior, and probability around the new reference. And action inevitability breeds what? AN OUTCOME. How the flying fuck are you gonna intend to shift and not shift? What are you worried about?? Never learning the âhowâ ?? News flash: the how is born from the intention, never the other way around.
When you set an intention, you create a reference point that awareness now has to bridge itself toward. That bridge (the sequence of events, ideas, coincidences, impulses, whatever) is the âhow.â
But how are you going to cross that bridge if you still identify with being doomed and stuck?? Youâre allowed to have any self concept you want. A negative one wonât stop you from shifting, least of all manifestingâ BUT LEAST acknowledge youâre in the process of shifting.
And donât acknowledge anything else!! BECAUSE NOW THE BRIDGE TOWARDS THAT IS BEING BUILT INSTEAD!!
âI feel stuck and miserable, but at least Itâs already unfoldingâ >> âI feel stuck and miserable, plus I donât know what to do.â
The former is gonna lead you towards the âhowâ.
âBut a process implies that I donât have it yet,â âa process implies itâs not instant.â
Dude, even instant things are a process. Blinking is âinstant,â and yet if you take into account the muscles contracting, the nerves, the brain signalingâitâs still a process. The second you intended to have it, instantly it became yours in your awareness, in your reality. But even if it were to show up 1 second or 1 week laterâ it would be a process either way.
Let yourself breathe and accept that youâre in the process of shifting/manifesting. The alternative is constantly flipping between âshiftedâ and ânot shifted,â âmanifestedâ and âdidnât manifest.â As if itâs that black and white. Itâs not. It never is. What feels better? Sitting there telling yourself you donât have your manifestation yet, that you donât know what youâre doing wrongâor saying that you do have it, youâre just in the process of it unfolding?
Why are you accepting anything else?? Why would you, now knowing that itâs unfolding, approach advice hoping itâll be the key thatâll make you shiftâ and then abandon it 2 seconds later when the words you read didnât magically spawn you into your DR? Do you have any idea how insane you look? When you know that reality is literally whatever you make it to be? Do you? (yâall, I didnât).
The way you observe realityâ be it through the law of assumption, law of attraction, non-duality, idkâit matters. It unfortunately matters. My god I wish it didnât, but it matters.
So at least, AT LEAST acknowledge that youâre in the process of it unfolding. Just like wavering, contradicting yourself, doubting, and crying wonât stop you from shifting, calling this thing a process wonât delay it.
If anything, it makes it happen faster. Because now youâre defining every moment (the wins, the fails, the lows, the breakthroughs) as part of the process of getting what you want. That automatically tells your awareness itâs observing a reality where itâs inevitably yours. So itâs already guaranteed.
Your ONLY job is to not accept anything else. ... OH! There you go again, saying you âdonât understand, donât know what to do, that youâre lostâ when YOU KNOW FULL WELL THAT âMETAPHYSICS ASIDEâ IF YOU ACT LIKE A PERSON WHOâS LOST, YOUâRE GOING TO TAKE ACTIONS OF A PERSON WHOâS LOST MOTHER FUCJCJDHSHS
Anyway yeah this is what Iâd tell myself. And then Iâd go make myself coffee and dump Baileys in it....
