kinda motivating as well, i’ve been detached from shifting for some reason, like i can’t find anything to do, i have free time but i also don’t have it 😭 please friends help me lol
✵ UNDERSTANDING THE FEAR. The fear of actually shifting to your DR is such a sneaky block because it’s not something we expect to feel. Like, you’re doing all this work (visualizing, affirming, scripting, etc) and yet deep down, you might be scared of actually getting what you want. It’s wild, but it makes sense when you break it down.
✵ WHY SUCCESS MIGHT FEEL SCARY.
— Even if you’ve visualized your DR a million times or planned your DR down to the last detail, but actually being there is a completely new experience. What’s it actually going to feel like to be there? What if things don’t go how you imagined? That uncertainty can trigger a lowkey (or not so lowkey) fear.
— Success comes with its own pressure. Once you shift, it’s easy to start overthinking. What if I can’t do it again? What if it’s not what I expected? That “what if” spiral can get overwhelming. And that might create a fear of succeeding.
— Even if you don’t love your CR, it’s still comfortable because it’s familiar. Leaving behind parts of it, even if it’s just for a short amount of time, (people, routines, or even just your identity in this reality) can feel heavier than you realize.
— What if your DR doesn’t live up to the dream? What if it’s not perfect? That fear can make success feel risky, and your brain might unconsciously try to avoid it altogether.
✵ HOW THIS FEAR MESSES WITH YOU. This fear doesn’t usually scream “I’m scared to succeed!” It shows up in subtle ways like procrastinating, feeling “stuck,” constantly tweaking your script, overthinking your method, or second-guessing yourself. It’s like your mind is putting up invisible walls without you even realizing it.
✵ WHY PEOPLE DON’T TALK ABOUT IT. This fear gets ignored because it feels backwards, like why would you be scared of getting what you want? Plus, in the shifting community, everyone’s so focused on HOW to shift, they don’t always talk about the emotional side of it. It’s easier to think you’re just “doing it wrong” than to realize you might be holding yourself back.
✵ HOW TO GET PAST IT.
— Acknowledge it. The first step is being honest with yourself. Ask, Am I scared of actually shifting to my DR? Once you see it for what it is, it’s easier to work through.
— Instead of obsessing over the moment you shift, think about how you’re going to feel and thrive once you’re there. Build that excitement so it outweighs the fear.
— Remind yourself you’ve got this. You’ve done the work, and you’re capable of handling whatever comes up in your DR. Affirmations like “I’m ready for this” or “I trust myself” really help.
— Your DR doesn’t have to be perfect for it to be worth experiencing. Give yourself room to explore and grow. Nothing has to be set in stone.
— Shifting doesn’t have to be some huge, dramatic moment. Every step (big or small) you take is progress, so don’t psych yourself out by making it feel bigger than it is.
✵ FINAL THOUGHTS. So yeah, fear of success is real, but it doesn’t have to stop you. The key is recognizing it for what it is and deciding it’s not going to hold you back. You’ve already done the hard part by getting this far, trust that you’re ready for what’s waiting on the other side.

are my words going in one and ear and out the other? when i say you have your desires i genuinely mean it. i’m not saying it to get your hopes up or to make you scream and shout with joy, but i’m being so fr rn YOU HAVE WHAT YOU WANT 😭. i stress surrendering to imagination so much because that’s literally all you have to do.. i keep seeing people say “oh after i manifest this i’ll feel etc etc” or “i can’t wait until i have my desire so i can do this and etc etc” NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. imagination is everything, ITS EVERYTHING!! if you come to me saying “oh well i’ve being doing everything right and i’ve been persisting in my assumption and i see no movement” 1. you’re dwelling on trying to see movement on any fact that your desire is coming to you. 2. you just reaffirmed failure “i see no movement” 3. you’re seeing your imagination as a technique to try and get something faster in the 3D. 4. you didn’t change self. change self and the world follows, YOU HAVE WHAT YOU WANT ALREADY AND I WILL SLAM THE DOOR IN YOUR FACE EVERY TIME UNTIL YOU ACCEPT THAT FACT. IMAGINATION IS THE ONLY THING YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO WORRY ABOUT, ONCE YOU CLAIM IT IN IMAGINATION THEN ITS ALREADY DONE. YOU EXPERIENCED IT ALREADY. STOP RELYING ON THE 3D ITS ONLY DOING ITS JOB WHICH IS TO REFLECT WHATS GOING ON WITHIN. IMAGINATION IS THE ONLY REALITY, SO I GENUINELY MEAN IT WHEN I SAY YOU HAVE WHAT YOU WANT ALREADY!! GET OFF OF TUMBLR, THE MATERIALIZATION IS DONEEEEEEE.
- last post for a while, because i’m not gonna spend my time on here. i slammed the door in your face already so this should be a wake up call. if it isn’t, do not knock on the door again because i WILL NOT ANSWER.
I think, therefore I am. One of the most famous statements in history of philosophy. Before manifesting, there was philosophy (essentially).
Warning ⚠️: Long post ahead about philosophy, which is related to manifesting (if you put two and two together), so if you want to build up your knowledge on both philosophy AND understand manifesting better than I'd say, go ahead and read!
Descartes was a part of a school of philosophers named The Rationalist. They believed that they were such a thing as an Eight Knowledge. Knowledge that is absolutely dependent of all experience. For Rationalists, there are truths that can be known prior to an observation or experimention.
When Descartes wrote his famous line, he was seeking to discover what kind of knowledge we could know beyond observations. Beyond the external world, if anything. After all, observations might be false. How do we know the human mind is not making things up?
Descartes' inspiration for his book The First Meditation was the simple question: How can we know that anything is true? It's possible that we are dreaming. After all, when one dreams, they aren't aware that they're in a dream. Therefore, they believe every second of it is real.
So Descartes to try to discover what we can know with absolute certainty decides to take everything that is possible to doubt and treat it as false. Therefore, whatever is left will only be beliefs we can know as true with absolute certainty. This way, we can find a base upon which we can build up our beliefs.
Descartes introduces the concept of an evil demon. A deceiver. A deceiver powerful enough to make everything a mere illusion. The evil demon was nothing Descartes believed literally. Instead, it served as a tool for radical skeptism. He went as far as denying basic truths, like mathematics.
The Cogito.
At this point, Descartes is not doing well. Luckily for him, he finds a middle ground. Even if his hands or his feet are real, he must be real. Even if he is being deceived entirely, there must be a He to be deceived. He can not deny his existence because if he denied his existence, well, who would be denying?
If one's doubting that they are thinking, they must automatically be thinking. Doubting is a kind of thinking. So by doubting they are thinking, they are proving that they are thinking. So, as they are doing some kind of thinking, they are. As long as I am doing some kind of thinking, I am.
"So after considering everything very throughly, I must finally conclude that this proposition, I am, I exist, is necessary true whenever it is put forward by me or conceived in my mind." - René Descartes, The Second Meditation.
"I think, therefore I am", sounds a lot like a deduction. A deduction is a method of reasoning or a process of drawing a specific conclusion based on a general principle or fact. "I think" is one statement from which we deduce the conclusion "I am." There's a debate in litterrarure on whether Descartes intended for it to be an argument or as a singular intuition.
Before, we must acknowledge that something called a syllogism exists. A syllogism is a form of logical reasoning where a conclusion is drawn from two premises. A syllogism begins with a major premises, follows with a minor premises and ends with a conclusion.
For instance,
Major Premise: All birds have feathers.
Minor Premise: An Eagle is a bird.
Conclusion: Therefore, an Eagle has feathers.
We could understand The Cogito to be a form of syllogism. Which would look like what follows.
Major Premise: All beings that think exist.
Minor Premise: I think.
Conclusion: Therefore, I exist.
But Descartes himself, opposed to this.
"When someone says 'I am thinking therefore I am, or I exist' he does not deduce existence from thought by means of syllogism but recognises it as something self-evident by a simple intuition of mind." René Descartes, reply to The Second Set of Objections.
Now that I humbly assume you've read all of this, maybe you weren't able to put two and two together. Let me be of hand.
By doubting something, you prove that it is possible. When you doubt wether or not your desires are possible to achieve, you essentially prove that they are. By doubting you acknowledge that they are alternative outcomes. If you were truly convinced something wasn't possible, you wouldn't doubt.
Additionay, remember syllogism? Do you want to see manifesting in a more "logical" side? No problem.
Major Premise: Our understanding of reality is filtered through our thoughts.
Minor Premise: I desire something; therefore, I assume it is real.
Conclusion: Therefore, my desires shape my perception of reality.
Please let me know if you guys want more of the philosophical side of manifesting. This is a first for me!
All this information I got from studying Descartes philosophy with YouTube, research, and my own understanding. I do not study philosophy myself (yet). I did it all at my own free will.
I think, therefore I am. I act, therefore I am. I want, therefore I am. I AM.
