Hot take but the reason why a lot of people are unmotivated to shift is because they are stuck on constantly consuming content on how to do it.
There's definitely good advice on here but it can be repetitive because we did say I believe almost everything we can about shifting. It good that people are posting advice but let me be fr most of the shifters especially on tumblr know what to do.
While consuming shifting content is not a bad thing if it repetitive advice when you already know what to do may be the big reason why you are unmotivated to shift.
Theres this ache in my chest that only shifting can heal
What If I told you I was thinking about multiverse being confirmed like 4 days ago and how everyone gonna look stupid in the future beside shifters
Anyways credit to judykats on tt
If you can't shift for yourself, shift for
Shift for your s/os
Shift for every opportunity you can have
Shift for limitlessness happiest
Shift for you dream life
Shift for your dream family
Shift for you friends
Shift for experiences you can never have here
Shift for unlimited knowledge
Shift for unlimited love you can find at every corner of the universe
Shift to show yourself it possible
Shift to find parts of yourself you didn't even known could exist
Some posts related to shifting where I seen angel numbers after I ask for specific guidance/motivation from universe
Does anybody else scripts in every dr that they speak like 15 languages?
I never really seen anybody like ever talk about this in shifting community but who have scripted those beauty videos for their drs or stuff like “I’m the most beautiful person in the world”. How did that end up and how was it to experience because you are basically unreal pretty, like it has to have some side affects and I’m curious asf. And I know the most simple answer to this would be pretty privilege but yk I’m still curious about people’s experiences
Hii darling who send me a ask about harmony in shifting and returning to their original reality, the ask is a bit long so I'll answer like this
Yes you can absolutely return to this reality no matter how long you spend in your dr, the only reason why it feels different when you come back is because you just been to a different reality and some people take time to adjust to the chances. Even tho you haven't physically moved anywhere, your awareness (you) has so that why some people take time to adjust even if they are back in their cr. But it different for everyone so it may not be like that to you:) either way no need to worry!!!
I'm actually scripting AI out of my drs bc what the fuck was that new google shit

Getting Comfortable in the State of Preparation
Why Shifters Often Get Stuck Here
Have you ever caught yourself spending hours making scripts, mood boards, and playlists for your Desired Reality (DR) but rarely (or never) actually attempting to shift? You’re not alone—this is super common in the shifting community or so I noticed after one of my posts. Many shifters fall into a pattern of preparation, where the process of getting ready feels more comfortable than the act of shifting itself.
1. Preparation Feels Safe
Making scripts and mood boards gives you a sense of control and progress. It’s exciting and comforting because it connects you to your DR without the frustration or fear of a failed attempt.
2. Perfectionism
Feeling like you need the perfect script, playlist, or method before you shift. This turns into an endless cycle of preparation because you never feel “ready enough.”
3. Dopamine Rush
Planning triggers a dopamine release—the thrill of imagining your DR can be addictive! It gives you a taste of your DR without actually shifting, so it’s easy to keep doing it.
4. Community Validation
Sharing your playlists, scripts, or mood boards in the shifting community can feel nice. It’s a way to bond with others, but it can also make the focus shift (pun intended!) from actual shifting to just the idea of shifting.
5. Procrastination as a Defense Mechanics
Procrastination is often rooted in fear. For some shifters, it’s easier to stay in the “preparation” phase.
6. Overwhelm
With so much information out there about shifting methods and scripting, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Instead of figuring out where to start, many shifters default to preparing because it feels more manageable.
If you find yourself stuck in this cycle, here are some tips that may help you refocus on actual shifting:
1. Shift the Focus to Actual Attempts
Remember that prep work is meant to support your shifting journey, not replace it. Set clear intentions for when you'll shift and stick to them.
2. Limit Prep Time
Give yourself a specific time frame for scripting or making mood boards (e.g., one day to make your script/ 1 hour a day for week). Then spend the rest of your time focusing on shifting.
(make sure to not be overwhelmed if you set a specific time that you are not comfortable with)
3. Visualize Instead of Overplanning
Focus on feeling like you’re in your DR. You don’t need every detail scripted; your subconscious can fill in the blanks.
(for people who feel like they can't trust their subconscious: your subconscious is YOU, it knows what you want. Your subconscious is never going against you; it always working with your desires you only need to allow to give it to you)
4. Try a “Prep Detox”
Take a break from all the prep work and focus solely on shifting for a few days. You might find it easier to connect with your DR this way. You'll see how easier shifting will become when you focus your energy on actually doing it rather then on finishing your script or making a new Pinterest board (no shade)
5. Reframe the Habit
See scripting and playlists as stepping stones, not the destination. Keep reminding yourself: the real reward is your DR, not the finished script.
6. Consistency Over Perfection
You don’t need to feel perfectly prepared to shift. Trust that you yourself is enough.
Getting stuck in the preparation stage doesn’t mean you’re not capable of shifting. It’s just a habit, and like any habit, it can be shifted (pun intended again)! Remember, your DR is waiting for you—it’s time to shift! :)
