SJM Fans Who Go "It's Just Fiction." When You Point Out A Flaw In Her Writing Are A Pain In The Ass.

make shifting fun for you ♡

do you ever find yourself spiralling after every 'failed' shifting attempt? do you stress whenever you do your shifting method? or worry about what step is coming next, or worry whether you will shift? find yourself doubting your abilities?

shifting is supposed to be fun.

and this does not sound fun.

the number one thing i have been making sure to do when shifting, is to prioritise my comfortability and enjoyability when trying to shift.

i always try and make the process as enjoyable and comfortable as much as i can for myself.

shifting is supposed to be fun, right? it's exciting! shifting should be fun and enjoyable- heck, you're going to experience a whole other reality! a whole other life, a whole other self, experiencing your wildest dreams and fantasies!

how are you going to expect yourself to shift if you're still stressing over the process of shifting?

find or make a shifting method/process that'll make YOU enjoy shifting, and keep you motivated!

do things that you LOVE doing that will make YOU feel motivated to shift/more connected to your dr!

shifting should not feel like a chore. going to shift should not drain you. shifting should not be boring.

it should be a fun and exciting experience!

don't worry about what method is the most popular or most effective or easiest to the general community. ignore the trending shifting methods, subliminals, or guided meditations.

everyone has their own personal journey with shifting and there is no right or wrong way to shift.

focus on yourself first. work out what you like doing the most/what you enjoy doing the most, what your strengths and weaknesses are, and then work from there to find a method/process that works for you!

for example, whenever i shift, i always ensure that during my method, i:

a ) am feeling good! that i'm feeling excited, happy, good, comfortable and am enjoying the ride! i do not force myself to shift if i feel drained, tired, bored, or i feel that i am forcing myself to shift (you can still shift when feeling these things btw! but for me, i don't like to because personally i don't get good results when i do. however, remember that this is just a me thing!)

b ) that whatever method or steps i'm doing to shift makes me feel confident and assured that I WILL SHIFT. by the 'end' or at some point of my 'method' i truly feel that i am going to shift and i can shift, and this whole thing isn't just me 'attempting' or 'trying' to shift.

you love imagining random scenarios of your desired reality, but worried it's not 'proper visualisation' and you're just daydreaming or imagining? who cares! imagination IS reality and if it makes you feel closer to your dr, do it!

you hate visualising and you just want to say affirmations over and over again because that's what you're the most comfortable with and makes you feel confident, despite what other people tell you?

do it.

in my experience, all the times where i've just done whatever i feel like and makes me feel like i'm having the most fun, i end up feeling the most confident i ever will be in my shifting abilities! it's because when you're doing things you enjoy/love, naturally you'll shift to have a more positive and happier mindset!

it also helps me to stress less about the 'process' of shifting and rather, focus on the destination and anticipation of my desired reality!

however, this is just a small tip from me! please take this with a grain of salt 🌷

and if you've made it to the end, just know that YOU WILL SHIFT!

i always love when people are surprised that not only is the danny phantom phandom still around, but we're extremely active and are ranked in the top 15 most popular fandoms on this site.

like yes while we haven't gotten any new content in the better part of two decades, we still have an active year-round events calendar, we highly encourage and engage in crossovers with other media, we have phandom accepted non-canon characters with backstories, we've developed various opposite-of-canon AU's and HC's like the corpse au or the dual obsession au and have created almost entire ecosystems of content in these niches, we've delved into the physics and science of many of the canon materials, we value writing just as much as we value art, we're open to debate and friendly banter about different canon/phanon ideas, we've fully fleshed out various "hinted at" canon ideas like cores and given them "rules" that are widely accepted among phanon, etc etc.

at this point we've just fully embraced death of the author. like cool, thank you nickelodeon for giving us this world, we're just gonna take it and do our own thing with it for the next, say, 17 or so years. we'll get back to you in a few decades with some notes. u can take it or leave it, we don't really care. you know where to find us ✌️

nothing brings me more peace than knowing that katniss everdeen spends the rest of her life eating warm cheese buns and being held every night by a man who loves her more than life itself. she deserves everything

Notice with how all success stories they all just had accepted it was done in imagination and gave up completely on trying to change the 3d and just became the person who had it/changed themselves? That’s all you have to do.

cringe has no place in shifting.

do flowers grow/die beneath my feet depending on my emotions? YEAH! I THINK ITS NEAT!!

am i super overpowered with no balancing weaknesses? no i have balancing weaknesses bc i think its more fun that way but if you dont more power to you! literally!!

do i constantly script myself as mysterious and nonchalant? UH YEAH WHO DOESNT WANT TO BE COOL??

do i script myself completely taller than i am in my dr? yeah im really fucking short. (cr: 5'1 and dr: 6'1)

do what you want!! who tf cares abt this reality's sociatal standards

When I talk about scripting and shifting, I imagine scripting as being similar to vacation planning.

Scripting = Planning the vacation, researching where you want to go and who you want to meet. When you get there, you can do and see way more, you can even extend the vacation, but this is just to map out where you’ll be going and prepare for that

Shifting = Getting on the plane to get to your destination. If it’s a sleep method, then that’s just falling asleep on the plane and (obviously) waking up once the plane lands.

deadlines are dead

here’s something i found out recently! making deadlines for myself is holding me back; and it could be doing the same for you.

now, shifting has no time limit. you don’t have to shift within the next 3 days or before you get you masters degree in engineering.

you don’t need to manifest your ideal body type before meeting or talking to that one person you want to be with so badly.

there is no limit to anything you do. it is your world.

galatians 6:9 — Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

now i got caught up in deadlines since i was young. primarily because of school and my family. weekend visits with my dad, going out to eat w him on wednesdays and only being able to stay until 7/8 or else it would be a big deal.

your homework is due the next day? i scrambled to do it in class or on the way home so i could say “nope! i’m done with everything. can i play video games?”

there was always something that i had to do in order to do something else, or it always had to be done by a certain time or there was fighting, yelling and screaming.. the good news is — that isn’t the case with shifting or manifestation!

all you have to do is decide you want it, and you have it, and you’re going to get it.

it doesn’t matter when or how it just matters that it is.

i want you guys to take this into account. stop setting deadlines for yourself and start saying “i will get it.” don’t say when, i usually just say soon.

but the thing is, it will all happen and it will b great <3

i love u all!

from the beings of ares and abyss

fuck killing a victorian child by making them listen to hyperpop all you gotta do is make a white tumblr user listen to rap

shifting exercise

someone probably already came up with something like this + sorry but sometimes i hear something and totally forget about it so i think i came up with it, so if you know someone already made this let me know and i’ll credit them!

-

the goal is to make your mind used to shifting and let it sink that you can do it.

what you’re gonna do is make simple actions, but you’re gonna put your shifting intention beforehand.

example: you take a glass of water and say “i’m gonna shift into a reality where I drink this glass of water” and then you’re gonna drink it.

this will make your mind acknowledge that shifting is easy and it’s just an intention like everything else. simply an action that you decide to do.

this is so easy so i highly suggest you try this, it takes nothing and i think it will help so much (of course you’re free to not do this lmao, this was just my advice).
