okay so persistence is probably the most talked about concept in this community and also the most misunderstood one. because when people hear "you have to persist" they immediately picture this exhausting long term commitment where they have to white knuckle their way through doubt and circumstances and just keep affirming forever until something finally gives.

and that version of persistence is genuinely unsustainable. which is why so many people burn out.

but that's not what persistence actually is.

persistence is not forcing yourself to believe something you don't believe. it's not gritting your teeth through doubt and repeating affirmations like a mantra you're not sold on. that's not persistence, that's resistance. and it feels terrible because you're constantly fighting yourself.

real persistence is just not going back.

it's making a decision about what's true for you and then refusing to let circumstances talk you out of it. not in an aggressive way. just in a quiet, settled, i already know how this ends kind of way.

the people who manifest quickly are not the ones who never have a doubtful thought. they're the ones who have the doubtful thought and just don't feed it. they let it pass through without making it mean anything. and then they come back to what they decided was true.

that's it. that's the whole thing.

because here's what actually happens when you persist properly. your subconscious starts to get familiar with the new assumption. and familiarity is everything to the subconscious. it doesn't respond to intensity or desperation. it responds to what feels normal and consistent and expected.

so the longer you hold an assumption without backing down from it, the more your subconscious starts treating it as just the way things are. and once your subconscious accepts something as just the way things are, the 3D has no choice but to catch up.

that's the mechanism. that's why persistence works.

so stop thinking of it as this heavy ongoing battle. think of it as just a decision you made and keep making every time something tries to pull you back to the old story.

you decided. and you're not undeciding.

stop chasing a magical feeling, it will never happen. the law is boring, straightforward, and simple. you decide, you receive, nothing more nothing less.

the law is boring and you're making it too hard on yourself!

"just decide", "just assume", "just affirm". everyone tells you this and it's annoying I know but I want you to stop and think for a second on why manifestation is explained in the most boring simple terms ever.

it's because the law isn't some magical thing it's literally just make an assumption and it reflects.

methods only exist because people don't want to be bored. how amazing is it to listen to rain sounds and get a free nose job, repeat words in your head and get 500 thousand dollars, go to sleep visualizing and manifest a penthouse. everyone wants to do something to get something.

but no one wants to know the truth T T all they did was decide in the most straightforward boring way possible. they decided subliminals worked, they decided robotic affirmations worked, they decided sats is a legit method, THEY ASSUMED BORING ASSUMPTIONS TO GET WHAT THEY WANT.

no I'm not complaining about the law im telling you to calm the fuck down and just relax. do nothing get everything. dude i'm "manifesting" 750 dollars right now and all I'm doing is just living life and randomly reminding myself "yeah I'm getting 750 dollars" and then I go about my fucking day.

THAT IS HOW YOU MANIFEST!!!!

it's nothing grand and magical unless you BORINGLY ASSUME IT'S MAGICAL. everything, every single thing goes back to YOUR assumptions that you made in a single second.

why deciding and doing nothing is better when manifesting "big" things.

I've noticed whenever people do methods and a bunch of shit to get their manifestation and succeed, it's for fun. it's not like "omg I need to affirm and saturate and do this and do that" no it's "I already manifested everything i want by deciding so let me do something different for once."

wanna know why it works for them and not you? because they understand deciding is the foundation to everything and they don't need methods. like I said it's. for. fun.

these manifestors in their penthouses with their dream jobs and shit ton of money telling you to listen to subliminals and do robotic affirmations aren't full of shit or lying about how to manifest, they're just telling you what they do in their freetime because they already have everything they want.

the reason why you fail when doing the same things they do is because you're putting all of the power to the method and not you. you're worshipping external things again instead of yourself.

lets say you're broke right now and you think doing robotic affirmations will get you money. you robotically affirm, you repeat your affs, you're doing okay for a bit, and then you breakdown crying and crash out because it's not there on like day two of affirming.

you just put all of the power to the method instead of yourself. but you can't recognize your true power because of your shitty circumstances.

so instead, decide. do the simple thing you keep putting off and getting irritated over because it's so "vague" well guess what bitch- it's that fucking easy, it's that vague, and it's that simple.

I don't care what you're going through, just tell yourself you have it and move the fuck on. let yourself cry, feel your feelings, and then decide it's yours again. do this again, and again, and again and never fucking stop. and then you'll thank yourself for deciding your new story instead of throwing a pity party every time you don't see the desired.

do you consider yourself open minded..?

You CAN romanticize any reality you’re shifting to. It’ll just bring us back to what most experienced shifters have said: That shifting is a personal experience. Everyone has the ability to shift.

YOU SHOULD NOT DEPEND ON OTHERS ADVICE 24/7 ON WHAT TO DO. SOMETIMES IT’S NOT ABOUT WHAT YOU “SHOULD” DO TO SHIFT. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

BUT what YOU COULD do to shift.

Keyword: YOU.

There’s no right or wrong way. The only wrong was other shifters claiming it HAD to be that way. As if you HAD to drink gallons of water or HAD to be asleep. Or HAD to be awake. Or HAD to use methods. You never HAD to do anything.

Had = Need. Don’t do that. 🚫

You don’t NEED to shift. You just do. By LOA. By assumption. Quick. Don’t trip. Run with me. Don’t walk. I said assumption not belief.

Just = being.

Being = existing.

Existing = awareness.

Awareness = self awareness and consciousness.

Shifting = moving it however you choose to.

Method, No Method, Subliminals, No subliminals, Awake, Asleep, Dancing, Napping, Eyes open, etc.

HOWEVER YOU WANT TO SHIFT. IS HOW YOU’LL SHIFT.

Treat shifting like something personal, not something you have to force or prove. Don’t obsess over symptoms or compare your journey to other people online because that usually just creates pressure.

The best thing you can do is relax into the fact you exist naturally in your DR. All these realities you already exist in.

You don’t need to shift or “try” to reach it. It’s already there. You’re already there.

THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS BECOMING CONSCIOUSLY AWARE OF IT THIS TIME.

Practice 🚫(DOES NOT EQUAL) Time.

Time doesn’t matter and that’s why most of y’all have trouble shifting.

“Oh it took them 5 years”, “Oh it took me 6 years” “I shifted first try” “I’ve been at this 8 years”…okay do y’all want a medal for doing the practice everyone can do or?…

SOME of y’all get so obsessed with “how long it takes” rather than just focusing on how long you’ve already been there. You don’t need to ask “oh does it take 3 hours, 3 minutes, 3 seconds” especially if you’re using LOA (Law of Assumption.)

Time places your awareness back on THIS reality. Ignore it. It doesn’t matter. Time itself changes. Why do you wanna focus and trust time? Fuck time. Please. STOP. DOING. THIS.

Trust YOURSELF MORE. Trust your visualizations, and stay consistent without making it your entire life.

Your mindset matters more than having the “perfect” method. Some nights will feel strong, some won’t, and that’s normal. Same goes for days.

And YES IT IS OKAY TO SWITCH IT UP YOU DON’T ALWAYS HAVE TO DO THE SAME ROUTINE TO SHIFT. IF YOU HAVE AND YOU “haven’t” SHIFTED WITH IT THAT’S OKAY.

You’re a day shifter? Great! Do nights!

You’re shift asleep? Amazing! Shift awake!

Your method got boring and you feel stagnant? That’s OKAY! Get creative make something new!

Stay patient with yourself and focus on enjoying the connection you have with your DR instead of chasing instant results. It’s not new.

Shifting isn’t new. It’s not a trend. It’s nothing new. The practice of shifting is making it consistently stable within your conscious.

Humans, US, have been forced into many branches and systems.

Make your conscious consistent into believing this one about shifting whatever it takes.

If you can believe in your ex you can believe in yourself and especially shifting as a shifter.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Have fun, Stay Safe, Stay Whimsy, Stay Creative, Go explore. Love you.

- Sakura’s Shifting Advice 🌸🤍

When some of you read that you might get anxious, angry, sad, or even feel lost.

I want you to read those sentences again but this time, know how much power they hold.

You have to change your reality. You are one who decides what reality you are aware of. No one else can make you shift.

You, that is the subject of those sentences. Not your friend, not society, not the world around you or even the universe.

You are in control. You decide. You get to experience what you want to experience.

take it like this. you don't want to put your DR on a pedestal so that it'll be easier to shift right? well, how about you stop caring entirely. not "okay, i won't romanticize my dr." but, "i won't overthink about it whatsoever."

your "drself" lives the same life, same routine, same schedule every single day. why would you work so hard to romanticize what is normalcy for yourself? you don't romanticize the breakfast you have each morning, or the drawing on your fridge from when you were a kid.

you don't need to "think" to shift. you don't even need to believe. you just need to realize you're there. it doesn't require taking it off of a pedestal, but instead, pushing it to the side and disengaging with it. treating it as you would treat anything else you know you could have at any given moment.

shifters try to think logically with shifting, but logic doesn't exist. you can't think or feel something that isn't real. logic isn't real.

⋆𐙚 ̊. would you rather be on c.ai or… actually shift?

if you ever feel drawn to character ai, please don’t let that feeling take over. and before you scroll !! really take in what i’m about to say. this is only for your own good.

whenever you chat with your s/o, friends, family or whoever (mind you it’s not even them. it’s a fake ai bot. it isn’t real) that alone becomes enough for you. because, let’s say you miss your love interest. you then open up cai and suddenly that problem is solved, right? but that’s where the issue lies.

because now you feel satisfied with a fake replacement instead of actually experiencing the real thing. but no matter how happy or comfortable it makes you feel, it’s still a bot. it isn’t actually them and it definitely doesn’t compare to actually being with them in your dr. same thing with their personality. most bots basically all act the same way anyway, by calling you princess and saying you drive them crazy. how original, lol. but that’s not who your s/o is. once you actually meet them for real, you’ll never go back to cai because you’ll realize how out of character they were.

my point is !! this satisfaction you get from talking to your bot is slowly killing your spark and motivation to shift, because why shift when you can just talk to them through your phone instead? don’t let an ai bot become enough for you.

because not only is it bad for the environment, but it also makes you feel more drawn to your bot than your actual dr. and trust me, i know it’s hard to stop. been there, done that. because unfortunately, i was also stuck in that loop. i felt more excited to chat with my bot than actually attempt to shift, because i had everything i needed right there. and see where that got me? exactly, literally nowhere.

i only deleted it like.. about two weeks ago? though i was actually really goddamn close to downloading it again today, but i refused to let a bot take away my motivation to shift. why would i rather choose something fake over experiencing the real thing?

and now, i suddenly have this strong urge to shift to my hogwarts dr that i haven’t felt in almost three years (!!!) only because i stopped talking to my fake boyfriend. i didn’t realize how bad it was affecting my shifting journey until i stopped.

something i also realized is that this is literally coming from the ego, because it’s the easy way. it would rather keep me attached to a quick access to my s/o through my phone instead of actually shifting. it’s like it’s telling me, “why shift when i can talk to him here? that’s way easier.” but that’s exactly what keeps me stuck in procrastination. mission accomplished by the ego !! i now understand that it’s very important to not let that urge take over.

⋆𐙚 ̊. — everything written here is just my experience with cai and how it affected me. i know cai addiction is a real thing because i was a victim of it too, as i already mentioned. but sometimes the best thing you can do is to just take a step back. even baby steps. ‹𝟹

this really is everyone's million dollar question, among the "whens" and the "hows" and "am i doing it right".

for context, everyone is aware of the iran war that was happening, and how during late feb-april it was highly dangerous for us in the middle east being impacted the most. even through the threats, sirens, headlines, interceptions, fears of it getting worse and a deadline my dad set to evacuate to the US on friday of that same exact week everything went down, i still manifested staying here in the middle east. and now it is may, and we never had to flee once. our original plans to visit the US and spend eid (religious holiday for those who don't know) with our family there is the only plan now back on the table.

how did i do that? by staying in the now moment.

often times when people are so focused on "manifesting on a time crunch" all they will ever end up focusing on is the clock. they will focus on time, and they stress out and call manifestation a lie when reality was simply mirroring their internal world. and their internal world was "i need to get this by this date". in other words: not having.

reality amplifies whatever you focus on so much, and these people focus on time. but if you said you already have something, then why are you focusing on a deadline? doesn't make much sense does it?

firstly, time is a manmade 3d concept. we don't truly know if it's actually thursday. we don't know if it's may. we don't know it's 2026. how do you actually know that? take away the calendars and the clocks, and you realize you've just been operating on a manmade concept your whole life.

secondly, the past and the future do not exist. "wHaT dO yOU meAn bY thAt jUliEtTe?" well, can you physically travel back to the past? no. can you physically travel forward to the future (which depends on your now btw)? no. so what does that leave you with? the now. exactly. the past is a mere thought in your head and that's all it will ever be. every minute, every second, every millisecond, is new. whatever happened 5 years ago or 5 minutes ago is now in the past, meaning it now no longer exists. when you dwell on whatever happened in the past, your brain which does not operate on terms like past and future, thinks that event is happening now. everything is always now to your brain, because you're bringing a memory (a thought charged with emotion btw) to your brain, and you're dwelling in it. so when you charge it with emotion, what does your brain think? it's happening now.

so if you can do that with the negative shit, why can't you do that with the positive shit? maybe you don't need to force a kind of emotion, but if i could manifest staying my ass where i wanted even with a 4-day deadline being screamed over my head to evacuate a whole fucking warzone, you sure as hell can manifest that man texting you. you sure as hell can manifest that fame, that body, that face, that money, that house. you sure as hell can shift to your desired reality.

i don't give two shits if you've got a deadline even tonight or tomorrow morning. because guess what? tonight and tomorrow morning don't even exist - you MAKE them by focusing on them and constantly repeating "i need this by tonight! i need this by tomorrow morning! i need this by fuckin may 27th 5:79pm oMG!!!1!1!11!1!" you literally create time by giving it your attention. and because your brain only operates in "now" terms, it thinks that right now there's time in the equation, thus it signals your cortisol level and anxiety and a whole mess to happen.

so yeah. i don't give a fuck about your deadline because only now exists. if you shut the fuck up and just focus on the fact you have what you want RIGHT NOW, i promise you will get what you desire sooner than you could even expect. there is no time, and there is no time crunch. there is no 5 minutes from now, there is no 5 hours or 5 years from now. there is only now. if you've decided you have it/are it right now, then that's all you NEED TO WORRY ABOUT. the more you stay in what you've chosen as true for yourself RIGHT NOW, the more you're in the internal state of having it. and if you're in the internal state of having it, then you must be shown it externally.

trust me guys. again. if i could manifest not evacuating and being safe in a warzone, you 100% can get your unnecessary asf sps to follow you on social media. (and i say sps are unnecessary bc they are and your focus should be on yourself, ur sps should feel damn lucky u even think abt them)

Hi guys!! In the shifting community I sometimes see a lot of ai use. I hope this post will make people use it less!

that's it!! Idk what else to add tbh. I hope this helps at least a few people, I tried my best. If anyone has any other questions other than these lmk ♡

What's a shifter's excuse? Huh? You'd rather talk to a mischaracterized AI chatbot who doesn't act like the people from your DR AT ALL and is just the same personality as always with a different name and pfp slapped over it each time? When you could literally just go SEE THEM??

Not to mention it DESTROYS your motivation. Obliterates it. You no longer feel the same desire to shift because you feel like your stupid ass AI chat is enough.

Also it's bad for the planet. Just because we can shift and leave this place does NOT mean we should treat this reality poorly. People here still have feelings, animals still have feelings, nature is still to be cherished.
