so iāve known about shifting for many years and have on and off been interested in it and tried, but never been successful
i think my main issue is that i think itās too good to be true, or that iām undeserving of it
do u have any advice on keeping motivated? and iām wondering how long it took u to successfully shift and how often u shift?
iām not the best at giving advice, but i have these moments where i suddenly zoom out and realize how bizarre it is that weāre alive at all. existing is strange. consciousness is strange. the fact that we experience anything from a first-person perspective is strange.
everything is perspective. reality, as we understand it, is limited to what we can perceive and comprehend. so who are we to decide whatās too good to be true? what do we actually know for certain? we havenāt even scratched the surface of understanding the universe. most of the ocean is still unexplored. there are entire ecosystems weāve never seen. so why do we act like weāve reached the final conclusion about whatās possible? there were countless things throughout history that were once incomprehensible until they were discovered or proven.
those thoughts used to ground me before i shifted (it took me a year and iāve lost count of how many times ive shifted by now) they scared me a little too tbh but they reminded me that certainty is an illusion.
and what makes anyone more or less deserving of shifting? even if someone is objectively terrible, shifting itself doesnāt operate on morality. itās an experience available to anyone, the worst person you know could be shifting rn. at the end of the day, i just think we overestimate how much we know and underestimate how strange existence already is. if being alive isnāt ātoo good to be trueā then why would shifting automatically be?
i have no idea if any of that was actually helpful, but i hope i didnāt accidentally send you spiraling into an existential crisis lol
