How do you get over the fear of never shifting
how to get over the fear of never shifting?
right, so you’re afraid you’ll never shift. you’re staring down the barrel of an eternal non-event, the metaphysical equivalent of a dinner party where the host never shows and you’re left nursing a warm gin and wondering why you ever put on shoes. the fear, then, is not just about shifting. it’s about stagnation, about the existential itch that nothing will ever happen to you, that you are, in the grand scheme of things, a closed-loop system with no exit ramp. it’s about the dread of being one of those people who say they want to do things and then never do them, like men who buy poetry books and never turn past the preface.
let’s establish something !!! this isn’t a you problem. this is an everyone problem. but listen. listen. that doesn’t mean nothing is happening. the want itself is movement. the yearning is proof of life.
but fear can be embarrassing. the fear is what stops you from talking about it in public. the fear is what makes you try to force it, and forcing it never works. this is a truth universally acknowledged, like how the people who tell you to “just relax” are always the ones who never have to try at anything.
so, how do you get over it? you don’t. not in the way you’re thinking.
you don’t kill it, or banish it. what you do is you turn the volume down. you remind yourself that shifting is not a limited resource, it is not an exclusive club. you reframe it, because fear, at its core, is a trick of perspective. if you treat shifting like a test you’re doomed to fail, then congratulations, you have built yourself a failure machine. if you treat it like a game, like a book you can open and step into at will, then suddenly it becomes something else entirely, something less cruel, less elusive. something possible.
and listen, i could do the whole inspirational speech thing, the "trust the process," "it happens when you least expect it," "insert comforting platitude here. you can do it, you're always doing it, bla bla bla." but that’s not what you need. what you need is this: shifting is a skill. sort of. it’s not a mystery, not some divine lottery where the lucky few get golden tickets to willy wonka's chocolate factory and the rest of us are left behind in the cold. it’s a skill, which means it can be developed, honed, mastered. and if you can accept that, then suddenly, the fear loses its fangs. it becomes background noise, static on the radio. it becomes something you can live with, something you can drown out with the sheer audacity of your wanting.
so, the next time the fear comes knocking, let it in. let it sit at your table. but do not let it drive. do not let it make the rules. because the fear, when you really break it down, is just this: a refusal to believe in your own capacity for transformation. and if there’s one thing i know about you, it’s that you’ve never been one to stay the same.
I think my favourite piece of shifting advise I've gotten so far, was to stop being here.
Stop being in this reality just because that's what you see in the 3D. If you want to see the change, BE the change. Go COLD TURKEY on the current reality. Starve the current reality of your attention.
Anytime you see and react to something in this reality, just remind yourself "oh wait, I am already in my desired reality." REMEBER WHO YOU ARE in your desired reality and in that embodiment, REMIND YOURSELF you are in your desired reality.
Like "Oh wait, I almost forgot I'm literally in my dr" or "Oh yeah, I almost forgot I've already shifted" because you literally have. Anytime you think about your dr, take that chance to remember yourself as your drself and remind yourself "Ah yes I'm already in my dr" "I'm literally in my desired reality right now". Because what you are doing right, there is the entire shifting process.
You are shifting your awareness of your current reality to your desired one, remembering who you are in your dr (embodying your drself) and reminding yourself you are in your dr.
You have become the change, so therefore the 3D will show the change.
brb, gotta read my favourite book (the dr reading i got from shay)
had a dream abt the walking dead which reminded me exactly why i dont shift there

✧ Orpheus and Eurydice
This is going somewhere I promise
Summary of the myth:
Orpheus traveled into the land of the dead to retrieve the woman he loved. When he finally arrived he begged Hades and Persephone to let Eurydice return to the living world with him.
Moved by his pleading, they agreed to let the pair return. On one condition, she must walk behind him and he must never turn around to make sure she is there with him. If he does, Eurydice will return to the land of the dead permanently.
Orpheus took the deal, but as he walked, fear began to build. He could not hear her footsteps. He worried that he may have been tricked and that his lover was not with him after all. The further he went the more his doubt consumed him. No evidence of her presence travels with him, only silence.
Seconds before crossing the boundary between the land of the living and the land of the dead, Orpheus allows his fear to get the better of him and looks back. As a result, she is pulled back into the land of the dead forever.
There are different versions of the myth, all with their own reasoning as to what made him look back at her. In some versions he is terrified that she isn't walking with him, in others he looked back a second too soon as he had crossed the threshold but she had not. In the end, it never matters why he looked back, only that he did.

✧ Your manifestation is Eurydice
It is incredibly tempting to seek evidence, but the physical world is not what validates you.
Assume and don't look back. It does not matter if you don't see evidence yet, in the same way it didn't matter if Orpheus could hear her footsteps.
Nothing in the physical world can stop your manifestation. Not seeing it does not mean you do not have it. Not feeling it does not mean you do not have it. Nothing and nobody can decide if you have it but you. Unless you look back, unless you go "what if I don't" or "I don't hear her footsteps she must not be with me", you still have it. Unless YOU decide that it is no longer yours it is yours.
Orpheus wanted evidence too.
Stop looking for proof and realize that you are the evidence. Your word is LAW. What you say goes. Once you declare something to be true it IS. You are the creator of your reality and truth comes from YOU. You decide what is and isn't true.
You are the creator of your reality. Whatever you say is true is true. You don't need to worry about how, you said it would happen so it will. You don't need to worry about when, you have it now. The physical world cannot tell you what is and isn't yours only you can.
What is the purpose of looking back??
Unless you're giving it up entirely, quitting is just self sabotage.
My line of reasoning is if you are not ready to give up on your manifestation for good what is the point of no longer persisting? If you're going right back to manifestation Tumblr to look for a new "key" did you really give up on manifestation or just yourself.
The first thing you're going to do after you cave is Google methods and tips and advice. So what is the point of quitting? You aren't really giving up on loa, you just don't trust yourself at all.
You're still looking for ways to manifest, you're still trying 230+ methods, you're still trying, so it's not really giving up at all, its just inconsistency. You didn't give up, you were just inconsistent.
In someone else's words, where would you be right now if you had persisted?
There is no shame in struggling. Orpheus looked back because he loved her, not because there was something wrong with him. You're not wrong or lazy or stupid. I promise you can try again and you CAN do it.
It is with you. You have it. Assume that you have it and don't go back on that assumption for ANYTHING. Take a deep breath, soothe yourself, and tell yourself you have it.

how to banish resistance effectively , resistance is not some grand cosmic force, sadly, it’s a habit. so stop. here’s how.
you are not your thoughts. they are not a mirror, not a diagnosis, not proof of failure. they’re just noise. when your brain spits out, 'this isn’t working,' don’t argue, don’t spiral, don’t even take it seriously. let it sit there. watch it fade. because it will. so stop identifying with intrusive thoughts.
resistance only survives if you start negotiating with it. the second you start dissecting a doubt, you’re trapped in its logic. don’t play along. when you get a thought like 'what if this isn’t working?,' just let it sit there unanswered, like an awkward question in a conversation you’ve already checked out of. give it nothing to work with.
resistance is only as powerful as the attention you give it. redirect your thoughts. immediately. to anything. every time doubt creeps in, think of something else. return to your assumption, your end goal, your desired reality. do it without hesitation. "but what if. ." no. "but i don’t feel. . .," don’t let resistance become the main thing. replace it, move on.
people act like doubt means something. it doesn’t. it’s just a feeling. a chemical reaction in your brain that passes, like hunger, like tiredness, like any other mood. let it exist without letting it define anything. don’t resist it, don’t analyse it. just let it float by like a passing car outside your window. not your car, not your problem. make peace with discomfort.
assume your power. resistance is a relic of a mindset that no longer serves you. you don’t have to fight it, you don’t have to fix it. you just have to stop believing in it. act like someone who already has what they want, and let resistance dissolve into irrelevance. it was never real to begin with.
stop treating resistance like an enemy to be defeated. it’s not a force, it’s a habit. and habits break the moment you stop giving them power.
