HOW TO SHIFT (for Dummies)

Procrastinating? Read this.

So, you wanna manifest your dream life but keep putting it off?

Let’s be real. You say you’re gonna affirm, visualize, and persist, but then suddenly, scrolling through reels, watching a whole-ass Netflix series, or overanalyzing the 3D becomes your full-time job. And then? You freak out because nothing is changing. Sound familiar? Yeah, thought so.

Why do you even procrastinate on something you want?

Your brain is lowkey tripping. It craves instant dopamine, and let’s be honest—staring at your ceiling, imagining your dream life while reality looks the same ain’t always fun. Your mind wants proof, results, and fireworks ASAP, but that’s not how this game works. You gotta train your brain like a puppy: consistency, belief, and a whole lotta "sit down and shut up" energy.

"I’ll start tomorrow" is the biggest scam ever to exist, no cap fr.

Tell me why you think tomorrow will magically make you more disciplined? Spoiler alert: It won’t. Tomorrow turns into next week, next month, and suddenly it’s 2026 and you’re still waiting for "the right moment." That moment? It’s now. Get up. Start affirming. Step into the version of you that already has it.

The 3D is playing with your head, but you gotta play it back

I know, I know, the 3D is looking disrespectful. Your SP is acting like you don’t exist, your bank account is laughing at you, and your dream life feels like a fever dream. But guess what? The 3D is just old news, and if you keep reacting, you’re just keeping the same boring storyline alive. Ignore it. You’re the director here.

How to actually stop procrastinating & start manifesting

Set a deadline for your doubts: Give yourself 10 minutes to freak out, then move tf on cause we ain't gonna suppress our emotions.

Romanticize your manifestation: Act like you’re the main character and your dream life is unfolding.

Affirm like it’s your job: No days off. No breaks. This is your reality, claim it.

Stop playing victim: You are literally the creator of your life. Act like it.

Make it a habit: Turn manifesting into muscle memory. If you can scroll IG for hours, you can repeat affirmations.

Drop the obsession: Desperate energy repels. Relax. Breathe. Your desire is already yours.

You either keep waiting, or you wake up and take control

The truth is, your dream life is waiting on YOU. Not the universe, not some random timeline, not "divine timing" just YOU deciding to stop playing and actually persist. So, what’s it gonna be? Are you gonna keep making excuses, or are you finally gonna step into your power?

You already know what to do. Now go do it, embody that version and manifest your dream life!

Songs That Remind Me of Shifting - ‘Come Alive, The Greatest Showman

You stumble through your days Got your head hung low, your sky's a shade of gray Like a zombie in a maze You're asleep inside, but you can shake awake

Cause you're just a dead man walkin' Thinkin' that's your only option But you can flip the switch and brighten up your darkest day Sun is up and the color's blindin' Take the world and redefine it Leave behind your narrow mind, you'll never be the same

Come alive, come alive Go and light your light, let it burn so bright Reachin' up to the sky And it's open wide, you're electrified And the world becomes a fantasy And you're more than you could ever be 'Cause you're dreamin' with your eyes wide open And you know you can't go back again To the world that you were livin' in 'Cause you're dreamin' with your eyes wide open So come alive

I see it in your eyes You believe that lie that you need to hide your face Afraid to step outside So you lock the door, but don't you stay that way

No more livin' in those shadows You and me, we know how that goes 'Cause once you see it, oh, you'll never, never be the same Little bit of lightnin' strikin' Bottled up to keep on shinin' You can prove there's more to you, you cannot be afraid

To come alive, come alive Go and light your light, let it burn so bright Reachin' up to the sky And it's open wide, you're electrified And the world becomes a fantasy And you're more than you could ever be 'Cause you're dreamin' with your eyes wide open And we know we can't go back again To the world that we were livin' in 'Cause we're dreamin' with our eyes wide open So come alive

Come one, come all, come in, come on To anyone who's burstin' with a dream Come one, come all, you hear the call To anyone who's searchin' for a way to break free

And the world becomes a fantasy And you're more than you could ever be 'Cause you're dreamin' with your eyes wide open And we know we can't go back again To the world that we were livin' in 'Cause we're dreamin' with our eyes wide open

And the world becomes a fantasy And you're more than you could ever be 'Cause you're dreamin' with your eyes wide open And we know we can't go back again To the world that we were livin' in 'Cause we're dreamin' with our eyes wide open

'Cause we're dreamin' with our eyes wide open So come alive

— SHIFT WHEN YOU ARE TIRED

it’s called hypnagogia. the amount of times i’ve nearly shifted with this method is UNREAL.

hypnagogia is a state between wakefulness and sleep.

have you ever been watching a show/movie etc. and you keep dozing off to sleep and keep waking up, yeah it’s that.

usually in this state people hear/see scary stuff but it ain’t real

when you are on the brink of sleep, try not to move so you don’t get rid of that drowsy ness

lay in a comfy position and you can

say affirmations

visualisation

use 5 senses

listen to music that reminds you of ur dr

you will almost feel symptoms instantly because you have been detached from your CR and this makes attaching to your DR more easier.

this method really works litch tried it in school and felt my surroundings change but i got scared my teacher would snitch and woke up…

but hope this helps !

I both did and didn’t understand feeling so attached to the reality you’re shifting to that it emotionally affects you,,

like I understood when people would talk about their family or their significant others or their friends or their children in other realities and talk about how much they miss them,, I understand the concept of loving and missing someone

but I had never, personally, experienced it,, I had missed hanging out with them before and thinking of things we’d do if I were in that reality in that moment in time, but I hadn’t experienced longing over someone in another reality

but I do now and by the gods is it both the best and worst feeling in the world,,

I miss his voice and his dumb accent and his stupid witch cackles and the shitty way he dresses and his dumb flirting

I miss being in his arms and feeling him run his fingers through my hair and his hand in mine and how soft he would hold me like I was made of glass and how he loved me despite neither of us knowing what love was

I miss him

I’ve never missed someone like this before

it’s weird and it hurts, but I like it at the same time

Affirm:

I can have, be, and do anything and everything I want. I AM anything and everything!

UPDATED SHIFTING GUIDE:

okay so recently actually made the big break. You know, when shifting CLICKS? I got it.

You're shifting your AWARENESS. Nothing else. If you say this thing is in your DR and you're in your DR and think about your DR as if you were there, you've shifted. Even if not physically, you've mentally shifted there. And the physical always follows the mental.

When you daydream about your DR, and you feel it for a moment, even if vague or emotional, you're literally shifting. Affirmations work because you EXPECT to feel your DR. You know what it feels like already. And that is literally visualization. Imagination is visualization, it's literally just that imagination is less detailed. But when you imagine something, the details will follow when you shift.

This is LITERALLY how you shift. Hope this helps

affirmed a few times last night that I was gonna lucid dream and wake up early,, just to see if entering a lucid dream was literally as simple as that

and it was🧍

I entered a lucid dream and I woke up earlier than I typically do,, even before my alarm

at some point within my dream I even felt myself to start waking up, but ive had this problem before and have been researching grounding techniques, and I remembered to apply them and I stayed fully asleep

it’s just so crazy to me!

I keep having dreams about a certain reality I’ve been attempting to shift to during the years,,, it’s not my current main one, my previous main one, or even a reality I’ve thought of in a while,, so I’m gonna take that as a little sign to shift to that reality

but oh my god,, I actually set intention to lucid dream and I did it

the minds so powerful and is capable of literally anything,, I just need to keep reminding myself that

3 deep breathes mindest

If this message resonates with fellow shifters who are mindful of their thought processes, I encourage you to try incorporating these affirmations :

“Every night, I shift effortlessly into the void by only taking 3 deep breaths.”

(p.s it can be 5 claps , 7 glasses of water , etc . whatever suits you)

“oh but i’ve seen this technique before and it seems too simple & easy to change my whole mindset-” girl lay down and relax I BEG.

Don’t treat this exercise as a method. Changing your shitty mindset is not something that happens overnight (mostly). I dare you to prove to yourself that you’re patient enough.

decided to shift to another reality that i haven’t visited in a while,,

been thinking about that reality all day, but more specifically,, my man in that reality

and i barely went onto amazon and the first thing i see is a symbol related to him?

i know i severely underestimate the power of my own mind,,, but this just feels surreal

every time i set the intention to shift to a certain reality i get a ton of confirmation signs and symbols

and i shouldn’t be surprised,, but i am
