Imagine you see a baby trying to speak for the first time. At first it only gets out tones, random noises.
Yet I don't see any of you telling said child, ''You're fucking worthless, you can't even speak.''
Because in order for this child to talk, it has to learn. Some learn really quickly, they get the hang of it after a few tries. Others need a few months or years, and that's okay. Every failed attempt is not a waste of time, it's not a failure, it's what is necessary to learn, and get the results you want.
You're learning, growing, like a baby standing up for the first time and falling back down. You would never tell that baby that they're useless, instead you cheer them on as they continue to try. And before you know it, they're running around and talking fluently.
Be kind to yourself💚
I forgot to put in my shifting pet peeves post that I hate elitist shifters. motherfucker you’re in no position to think you’re superior in this small corner of the internet when the rest of the world sees you as a deluded dork for shifting realities. get down from ur pedastal and behave like the real freak you are, just like the rest of us.
shifting is for those who refuse to give up their childlike sense of wonder
you deserve to shift
When it randomly hits me in the middle of the day that the 3D doesn't matter at all and everything depends on your choice that you can shift ANYTIME.
I know this sounds like a basic tip everyone says, but "living in the wish fulfilled" is something that you need to do if you want to shift way easier. (of course, you can shift without this but why not make things easier?
"act as if"
When shifting, you aren't willing to become your "DR self", you are said DR self. Act as if you're already there, think in first person as if you're in your DR already.
If thoughts about your CR occur, that's okay. Try to let them pass, turn the thoughts into 3rd person. You aren't in your CR anymore, think of it as another place now.
"the present tense"
I AM.
Still basic, yet I see a lot of people get that wrong. Speak as you're already there.
"I will shift" = "I have shifted."
"I am a master shifter" = "I am in my DR."
Stop trying to manifest the power to shift, you already have that. You don't need to affirm 'I am a master shifter', this is manifesting the wrong thing. You should focus on getting to your DR, not gaining the ability to.
"Think of your DR as a REAL PLACE."
You ARE your DR self. Your DR is REAL. Stop thinking about it as a fictional place, it's a REAL one and treat it like that.
Instead of saying "my DR self", say you. Your 'DR self' is just another term for you, your DR is just another reality you live in. Stop treating them as something unachievable.
Remember, you don't need anything to shift. You can do it at any time no matter what. Stop limiting yourself. 111 222 333
another shifting hottake of mine that might be a bit controversial is that……
baby shifters are desperate for validation…for confirmation that shifting is real (and that’s valid)
but shifters that have shifted sometimes use that desperation to build little cults of admiration.
the whole “i’ve shifted multiple times” flex is just a status symbol now from what i’ve seen….
and anyone who struggles to shift is treated like they’re just “not trying hard enough” even though the entire concept of shifting is supposed to be personal and mental.
people who haven’t shifted are treated as almost less than (constantly ignored, talked over, etc) which i find incredibly weird because everyone can shift so????
the community has become a hierarchy with aesthetic headers.
under the read more because it's sort of long oops
I'm Asher (he/they) and this is my shifting (and sometimes lucid dreaming) blog! I like Calvin and Hobbes if you couldn't tell
I'm an adult. All ages can interact, but I probably won't knowingly interact with you if you're under 16 or so
I've shifted a couple times but never for more than a couple seconds. I've been on my "shifting journey" or whatever (why is everything a "journey") since late 2020 though
I was active in shiftblr very briefly in 2021 but I deleted. I took a break from shifting all together after that, but I've gotten more interested in it lately. I've decided to come back; let's see how that goes
I've only got one DR at the moment and that's Mob Psycho 100. Please interact if you also shift there; the only person I know who shifts there is me it is so dark out here
I don't really like making shifting a spiritual thing. I will reblog spiritual posts about shifting if I think the advice is still helpful even when viewed through a non-spiritual lens (loa/sats mostly) but for the most part I avoid it. I especially avoid posts about the god state for my own personal comfort
I will probably not post nsft content but if I do it will be tagged [minors dni]
No terfs (should be a given considering pronouns in bio but you never know with these people), race changers, or harry potter fans. I block very liberally besides that but those are the things I block for most often
You need to relax.
You already have it, remember?
Me when I can feel myself about to shift but I get hit with the realisation of how real shifting is and I am going to be in my DR FOR REAAL
