the definition of failing is “a weakness, especially in a person's character; a shortcoming.” and this definition is going to serve as the baseline for my point about why you shouldn’t conflate “not shifting” with failing.
not shifting is simply an outcome but failing is a judgment of self. when you say “i failed” OR you begin cycling through various thoughts that make you believe you’re incapable of shifting, you’re not just describing what happened but assigning meaning to it as well. you’re saying that something about you is lacking. that you did something wrong. that you’re not capable.
but that’s simply not true. you just didn’t shift. period.
nothing about that sentence implies weakness or that you’re incapable. it’s just a neutral observation of what occurred.
but the moment you label it as failure or treat it like failure, you turn a neutral experience into something personal. something that now feels like it reflects badly on who you are instead of just what happened.
and that’s why you’re disappointed each time. because in the back of your mind, you’re still treating the shift like something you’re incapable of getting. you still feel it’s above you in some way and that’s why you hold onto the shame of not making it. you don’t categorize it as a neutral “i didn’t shift” but a personal “i failed to shift.”
that disappointment is just the result of you processing not receiving something you pedestal—even when you “worked” for it. but i’m here to remind you that you as a person, as a soul, did not fail. you just didn’t shift… and that’s okay.
we have to stop equating these two things because it makes the entire process feel way more serious than it actually is. you already have every tool within you. you already shift with every decision you make. so holding onto these past attempts as an identity of failure just turns something that should be fluid and natural into something that feels like a test.
but you shifting is not a barometer for how capable you are. you’re not losing points every time it doesn’t happen. so don’t apply extra meaning to simple things. just say what happened.
“i didn’t shift last night.” and then move on.
and if you can’t do that without applying an identity of failure around it, i’d rather you not address it at all. work towards freeing yourself from the judgement. practice your self concept. speak LIFE into yourself. it will free you from a lot of pressure.
when you remove the weight, you stop making it harder than it needs to be. and shifting has no reason to be this hard.
Hellow! I have a question that's been on my mind. loa and law of exchange are intertwined?
i haven’t really heard of the law of exchange before. however, from looking it up, i don’t particularly think they’re intertwined. obviously, it’s however you assume it to be, but personally, i believe that you don’t have to give in order to receive.
the law of assumption is purely about assuming a version of reality to be. you could assume being rich, having your sp, your dream job, being extremely lucky, etc. however, you don’t need to give anything in order to have that assumption, because that is a version of yourself that already exists.
i am so good at making friends. people are always attracted to me and want to talk to me. everyone loves me and wants to be my friend. i effortlessly make connections everywhere i go. friendships and connecting with people come naturally to me. everywhere i go, people are attracted to me and my energy. its normal for people to be extremely obsessed with me. people naturally always want to be around me. i am so popular; everyone loves me and wants to be my friend. i effortlessly connect with people everywhere i go. it actually crazy how easy it is for me to make new friends and connections. i dont even have to try, and people naturally gravitate towards me. i easily connect with anyone i meet. i am always meeting amazing people everywhere i go. i am so popular, and everyone wants to be my friend. i am the most outgoing and approachable person there is. isnt it wonderful that i have my ideal friends and connections. conversations just happen, and somehow i always end up clicking with people. i can go anywhere and end up talking to someone new without even planning to. people always feel comfortable around me and open up to me. everyone genuinely enjoys my presence and wants to be around me. i am always included, always thought of, always invited and always chosen. people always want to have me around. people are always just naturally drawn to my energy. friendships just form so easily for me, and they are always fun and genuine. i dont have to chase people, because they are always attracted to me just being myself. it's extremely normal for me to have strong connections and make meaningful friendships. it's normal for people to always reach out to me first. its normal for me to feel wanted and chosen. this is just how things work for me. this is who i am. friendships come to me effortlessly, and they always will.
quick little reminder that shifting and manifesting is all so so SO very real. i am quite literally living the life of my dreams right now, i have my desired appearance, desired opportunities, i got out of situations i once never saw a way out of, healed from things i once never thought i would heal from, and things are aligning for me in ways beyond what i could've ever known. but most importantly, i am happy, i trust myself, and i can confidently and truthfully say that i love myself so so so much, inside and out, and i know for good that i am truly the universe and always was. and believe me, i was once at a place where i never in my life could've imagined saying that. all of this to say, no matter where you are right now, trust this moment. things WILL get better. everything you dream of WILL be yours. actually it all already is. everything will always, always, always be okay.
why are we treating manifestation and shifting like a process?
"you need to practice" "you don't learn how to read after one book" "you need failure to be successful."
IT'S ALREADY DONE.
as soon as you decide that you have your manifestation, you have your manifestation.
as soon as you decide you are a master shifter, you are a master shifter.
stop waiting for the 3d validation to help you feel successful; you are already successful in your manifestation as soon as you simply decide that you are.
nah but seriously, what's the point of checking the 3d?
you know you already have your manifestation either way, so why tf give the 3d any attention? girl your a diva, and the 3d is just an annoying ex. lock in and tell the 3d to fuck off!
YOUR ASSUMPTIONS CREATE YOUR REALITY NOT YOUR FUCKING FEELINGS. IDGAF IF YOU HAVE A BAD DAY OR IF YOU HAVE THE BEST DAY IN THE WORLD; WHATEVER YOU ASSUME IS YOURS.
this is going to be a bit of a different post than usual. this is going to go in the direction of my own personal experience.
i have been in the shifting/manifesting community for many, many years now, ever since i was around 12. now, as a 12-year-old, when you discover this, you get immersed into it.
i would constantly watch tiktoks, read posts, watch youtube videos, and read books. i would consume any possible form of information about any of the topics of manifestation and shifting. i wanted to be like one of those people who would have these super magical experiences, travelling different realities and manifesting their dream lives overnight.
though did little me actually believe that was possible for her? yes. she actually did. though the problem with little me was that she didn't think she could do it by herself.
lets fast forward a bit; otherwise, we will be on this cycle for nearly as long as i was when it came to my manifestation journey.
only around last year did i fully start changing my life and experiencing the magical experiences i once dreamed of experiencing. only around a year ago did i finally start creating my dream life and finally being the powerful one, rather then the person always seeking power.
do you want to know how i did that?
i realised that the power was always from me. not from anyone else. no amount of information was going to create my dream life; that was always up to me.
once you realise your power, that's when you will begin experiencing everything you've ever dreamed of. i simply realised that it was up to me to change my life; it was time to change the old story and create a new one.
since then, i've been changing my assumptions and thoughts, and everything has been changing. my self-concept has changed. my desires are coming to me. and my life has been changing.
and how did i do that? i realised i was the power.
so the next time you go to binge watch/read posts to see if something "clicks", or comment if your doing something correctly, ask yourself:
"which identity am i doing this from?"
am i doing this from someone who is in lack? or am i doing this from an identity of being a powerful manifestor?
because you are a power manifestor, if only you simply realise and decide.
Can I ask what it means to "be aware of being aware"? It sounds very confusing.
from what i interpret, i believe it means being aware of your thoughts/assumptions and the internal, since that is you/awareness.
you are ultimately awareness/consciousness. you are aware of your surroundings, your life, your thoughts, etc. you are awareness.
what creates your reality is your internal awareness, which is then mirrored by the external. therefore, making sure you are aware of your internal is helpful in manifesting, as it becomes a mirror for the external.
though personally the phrase "be aware of being aware" makes no sense and is confusing for no reason. rather be aware of your internal state makes more sense to me.
