Learn all you can from the mistakes of others. You won’t have time to make them all yourself.

It may be a tough ride currently, but never forget it's shaping you for better days that lies ahead of you. Enjoy every moment.

70 F outside with a soft breeze. It's a beautiful day and all I wanted to do was sit in my front yard and exist.

So, I did. I quietly existed on the ground for about 20 minutes, just allowing myself to be. It was refreshing, comforting, and I felt that everything was going to get better.

February has been a rough month with lots of ups and downs in my mind. I know it hasn't been terrible, but my anxiety and depression have created this image of failure in my mind. I was ill over my birthday, I didn't do anything romantic for my husband over valentine's, I wasn't able to take part in the simple photography challenge I set up for myself because I just wasn't motivated.

This all gathered up inside and makes me feel as though I wasted February. Winter should be about rest - the calm, silent season before the colorful rebirth of nature. I think I'm ready for spring.

I think I have sat still long enough that I am simply wallowing in the quiet and unable to relax. I live in a state of anxiety, so it's difficult, but I am ready for life. I'm ready to live.

I need to stay positive, to stay motivated, to allow myself to take days off to simply exist, but I want so much to enjoy the world around me and feel connected to it.

I'm optimistic.

Success doesn't stay in one place.

Some days it's nailing a presentation at work.

Other days it's not yelling at the barista for getting your order wrong.

Success isn't some grand finale. It's the little wins that make your day.

If you're still chasing that one moment where everything falls into place, let that go.

You're the only one who gets to define your success.

Stop living life as if you are on a timeline.

There is not set deadline for success and achievements.

It is okay to wander and take the scenic route.

Life is not a straight line.

Seek Peace, not Praise.

I want people to stop trying to say one then another why do people hurt me so damn mush whatever I've done please let me go and out your way of life find your own life to live punk please i don't want to have nothing to do with you and your let me go damn you bitch ass nigga i fucking hate you because always in my life so the up please .

So hard

How do the people who have killed feel about each person they took their life being carried for 9 months in the mother's belly? And was it carried with care?

THIS.

and not only just being normal about manifesting, but also being normal with yourself emotionally

there are so many people who believe feeling things is unnatural. it's OKAY if you're feeling down/angry/frustrated etc. ITS OKAY TO FEEL EMOTIONS!!!! yes, you do have the powers if God but you are still experiencing existence like a human. and it is HUMAN NATURE to have emotions.

just because you're having a bad day does not affect your manifestations because already have it. does your phone dissappear into thin air if you're feeling sad??? NO. FEELING SAD DOES NOT EFFECT YOUR MANIFESTATIONS AND YOUR ABILTY.

But what to do when you are having a bad day? honey, it's completely natural. even if you don't have an apparent reason, that's okay. do not ever try to ignore your feelings ever. it's so so so unhealthy. if you're feeling an emotion you don't like, just remind yourself that it won't be the same forever. remind yourself that this is normal, and it will pass on after some time. try to do things that will uplift you.

BE NORMAL. treat bad days like how anyone else does, try to stay calm and positive because at the end of the the everything always works out for you. knowing the law won't make you immune to having emotions. stop being so toxic with yourself!

your emotions and loa are 2 different things. your power is always at its fullest so don't beat yourself down if you're feeling sad you can manifest as fast as you always do. emotions are something we all feel and they literally have no power over your manifestations or the law.

ps. I'm kinda busy rn so this isn't proof read sooo sorry If there's typos! have a good day<3

Stop ignoring what you're feeling.

You may be doing everything right. But if you feel agitation, anxiety or even feel like you're on the verge of a spiral, I'm gonna need you to take a step back. What's your foundation? Your perfect self concept. Forget your desires. Remember your worth. Your desires are already a part of you. You already embody everything you want. So stop pondering too much on something you already have, rather ponder on your self concept. Obsessing over your desires (that you already fricking have) is literally a ticket to spiraling.

Some of you are gonna have to learn to be normal again. You've been manifesting your whole life, and you didn't question your reality once. Now after learning about the law of assumption, I think many of us begin a bit unstable.

This is literally supposed to be fun, not anxiety-inducing.

1. Write your desires down (or just think from them). Visualize them. Accept them as a part of you. Feel wish fulfillment (you don't have to feel some grand feeling that overwhelms you. You just have to know). And then MOVE ON.

2. Persist. Flip your negative thoughts, or just don't feed something you don't want attention. If you're feeling anxious and agitated, fall back on your perfect self concept. Stick to your self concept affirmations but then please MOVE ON.

3. Always, always fall back on your self concept. Why? Because you already embody your desires. That was step one. Any kind of resistance will perish with your focus on your self concept.

It is normal for me to get everything I want.

It is normal for me to have a healthy, loving relationship.

It is normal for me to be chosen and loved.

It is normal for me to have the best quality of everything.

It is normal for me to be adored, put on the pedestal.

It is normal for me to be the best ever.

IT IS NORMAL TO MANIFEST.

IT IS NORMAL TO BE A MASTER MANIFESTOR.

IT IS NORMAL FOR ME TO MANIFEST INSTANTLY.

IT IS NORMAL FOR ME TO MANIFEST HAPPINESS.

IT IS NORMAL FOR ME TO BE HAPPY, LOVED, AND HEALTHY.

STOP looking for information!

warning: calling some of yall out on your behavior ahead😷😷

bro? aren't you tired? haven't you spent enough hours/days/even WEEKS scrolling through every post you find? reading every book, so desperate for trying to achieve?

YOU KNOW EVERYTHING. IF I TRUST YOU, YOU SHOULD TRUST YOURSELF. STOP freaking out or overthinking. it's not that complicated

manifestation is literally the easiest thing in the world, no other task you can think of requires less effort than this. it's easier than BREATHING.

I urge to you to stop trying to find the perfect post, to wait for your "spritual awakening" and shit like that, you are already a master manifestor, do not compare yourself to others. i mean, they are literally you pushed out, everything starts from you and ends in you. nobody in this world is better than you, nobody is luckier or more "skillfull". it's only YOU. you are the one and only, the almighty.

repeat after me

"i am god, I created everything. every single thing in this world starts from within me. I control how my life functions. I control how this whole UNIVERSE functions. I'm the center of the fucking universe, I am capable of everyhting. I get whatever I want, with unrealistic ease and speed. doubting any of this, is pure insanity"

this is literally all the info you need to know to manifest, stop trying to find something and just reading the same thing over and over again

you want something? stop being desperate. this whole fucking universe belongs to you! you are capable of achieving every single thing your mind can possibly think of, throw that "logic" out the WINDOW.

A god like you does not have the word "logic" in their vocabulary. you see, you want, you FUCKING GET! THATS THE ONLY WAY, THATS THE LAW, THERE'S NO FUCKING OTHER POSSIBILITY. NO MARGIN FOR ERROR IS POSSIBLE WHATSOEVER.

so stop spiraling. stop over thinking. take a deep breath, realize who tf you are and go affirm.

throughout your life, the single most thing you should absolutely never do, is to doubt yourself. once you realize that, and stop doing so, you will achieve things so magical, and realize how addictive and beautiful life is. you were never meant to be miserable, you were meant to be on the top of this fucking world, to have it dance on your little pinky finger. act like it.

Diary of an aspiring Firefighter

Today was mildly productive. I need to remember resting my body makes me stronger

Woke up at 7:30 because my partner had to leave for work

Spent some time milling about and tidying my room before I went out for a walk

I practised the beep test, I got to 2.7 which was my goal (I plan to get .1 better everyday)

Spent some time playing the sims as my body hurt quite a lot from the gym the day before

Joined a teams call to learn about various graduate programs for the degree I'm completing (always need a plan B)

Went to the gym with the loml

Had dinner and had a cuddle before I left for my overnight shift

Everyday I get closer to my goal. Each day I can feel my body get stronger, each day I feel a renewed sense of motivation. I know the road to become a firefighter will be long and hard but I can get there

Many people don't seem to understand that Introversion is not something that needs to be cured

“It’s okay to have emotional swings.”

—

It is natural for humans to have emotions.

Even if you are upset or angry, you swing supplely, and aim to be “steadfastness”, to get back to normal again with ease.

People have got to live in a ‘sea of strangers’, which naturally causes stress and conflicts. Many people may believe that it is better to be emotionally unaffected, but it is natural for emotions to waver and be disturbed. The important thing is not to get caught up in or swept away by the tide. That is, as long as your emotions do not spill out of the vessel of the 'heart’.

Steadfastness does not mean a mind that does not move like a rock no matter what, or a mind that is as quiet as the surface of the water, which does not ripple at all. Without feelings, it is as if you were dead.

Steadfastness is a mind that may sway but does not overflow; a mind that may waver like a balance toy, but its axis is fixed on one point.

Nine out of ten emotional problems are a matter of mindset, a matter of how you look at things. Once you have a correct perception of the situation, you are not at the mercy of your emotions, even if they are disturbed.

When you are caught up in a tide of emotions, something inside you is misjudging. Misperceptions may be caused by wanting to protect one’s position and pride. Or perhaps because you are preoccupied with a single concept. In order to reveal it, it is necessary to technically stop the emotions at once.

If you know the technique of shutting off the flow of emotions once they are in place, it is possible to cultivate a steadfastness that will return even if you sway like a balance toy.

🧁🤍THE BATMAN EFFECT🤍🧁

🤍Are you aware of the meme where people start identifying themselves as batman ? Turns out it is more than a meme. The batman effect means where you pretend to be character like Batman or Barbie to complete a task.

🧁In a University of Michigan a researcher , Professor Ethan Kross , he completed a study he completed with several colleagues where a sample of 4 and 6 year old children were invited to complete a boring task on computer . The children were instructed to work hard , keep it as long as they could and they were reminded the task were boring . To test their commitment to the cause , the researchers informed the kids that they could take the break whenever they wanted to play a game on tablet .

Group one - Researchers told them to ask themselves , " Am I working hard ? " while they completed the task.

Group Two- Researchers instructed these children to ask themselves , " is y/n working hard ? " .

Group Three - Researchers told these kids children to pretend they were a favourite hardworking character like Batman , Bob the Builder or Dora the explorer . They received a prop like a cape as a visual reminder to act like their character. They were instructed to ask themselves, " Is Batman working hard ? "

Result - Children in group one did not enjoy their task . They took most breaks and their motivation was poor. The second group did a little better . The third group or the Batman group worked harder , took fewer breaks and enjoyed their tasks more than others.

🤍The batman effect works for not only children but for adults too !! Beyonce has an alter ego " Sasha Fierce " , her alter ego allowed her to be confident . Adele also has an alter ego " Sasha Carter " , her alter ego was a combination of Beyonce's Sasha Fierce and the real music star June Cartar. Adele admitted that her alter ego helped her give her best to every performance during her breakout year. I believe even k-pop idols have alter egos , there are idols who are bubbly and shy in real life but on stage they are confident.

🧁The Batman effect helps us to reduce anxiety. Adopting an alter ego is an extreme form of self-distancing which involves taking a step back from our immediate feelings to allow us to view a situation more dispassionately. When you think of yourself as a separate identity , it is not you that has to perform the task , it is Batman . It can help you to build confidence, increase concentration , improve your emotional regulation and help you to gain self-control . Your alter ego has no limitations.

🧁So the next time , you lose your motivation to study ? Pretend you are Rory Gilmore. ( whoever you upto for study inspiration) . You feel you cannot do anything ? Pretend you are Barbie. You feel you cannot dance ? Pretend you are Michael Jackson.

This quarantine might be the best thing to ever happen for some people. I actually had a friend who told me recently how much this quarantine is changing his perspective. He’s realizing how repetitive work is and truly there is so much more to a 9 - 5 life. I was super happy to hear him say it!

3am manifestations

Maybe some of you are like me and didn't exactly know what you wanted in life but you knew you weren't happy at all and you just wanted everything to change. So a little quirk I have is that I gain a new hyperfixation on something wither it's a song or a game and I can create a whole story revolving around that specific thing if that makes any sense what so ever.

So I think I want to start this series where if you feel stuck in life and you don't know what you want but you want a change this series could open your eyes to your desired life/situations and include affirmations connected to the scenario. For example when a song create a new scenario in my head I would write it out and also list some affirmations.

ALSO this is inspired by @valleyhiraeth because a lot of my ideas come from me listening to music at 3am and just thinking about LOA and how it all connects. So big shoutout to her for inspiring me to start this series. I don't think this is a great explanation at all but it'll make more sense as I post.

A few notes on indulging in media consumption

When I pay attention to what media I consume and how those make me feel, I realize some of the things I enjoy actually affect me negatively on the long run.

I enjoy listening to Miss Taylor Swift and get nostalgic about previous loves as much as anyone, but I have to realize I gain literally nothing by doing that - I only get drained.

I quite like some shows (and some high quality ones are worth watching, art puts life into perspective) but binge watching Elite will never be as valuable as sitting down to study Castillian Spanish and I have to act accordingly.

I dislike overly-dramatic tear-jerkers, victimhood-inducing news, and all types of media indirectly promoting pity parties.

Writing this as a reminder for myself, as I quite enjoy such stuff from time to time. One needs to discipline herself in terms of what she puts into her brain.

With love,
