I Understand States And Everything But What Should I Do When I Doubt? I’’m So Confused

define: states 🫶

also known as: how to manifest using states!

your state is what manifests, not your thoughts.

this has become a very inflammatory sentence for some, but it shouldn't be scary. states simplify manifestation, it doesn't complicate it.

at the beginning of my loa journey, i would affirm alllll day long. while watching tv, while reading, while hanging out with my friends. and by the logic of "your dominant thoughts manifest," i should've gotten my manifestations after only a few days of that. but i didn't, because dominant thoughts aren't what manifests, it's your state that manifests.

you are not a state. you are I Am, and you enter in and out of states all day long. there is an infinite number of states, and no one experiences states the same way. so even if two people are manifesting the same thing (for example, money), the State of Being Rich will probably look different for both of them. so there's really no one specific way a state should look/feel!

because there are an infinite number of states you can occupy, right now you have the power to be rich, just as much as you have the power to be poor. it is just as easy to occupy the state of being rich as it is the state of being poor. you are both of these things, and you know that you are both of these things because you can imagine being both of these things, and everything stems from your imagination.

the state that you consistently go to, also known as your dwelling state, is the state that manifests into your 3d reality.

so, how do you get into a state?

you switch states simply by intending to. the second you want to switch states, you do. in order to maintain this new state, you can use a technique such as affirming, scripting, or visualizing.

let's talk about affirming.

affirming is a TECHNIQUE. some people argue that since affirmations are just thoughts, you can never stop affirming and should be monitoring your thoughts all day long. i do not agree with this.

your thoughts do not manifest. it's why i spent my time from summer 2020-summer 2021 affirming on a constant loop 24/7 that i was in a relationship with my [old] sp, and it never manifested. it's why when you get intrusive thoughts they don't manifest. it's why--even tho every time you go to the bathroom you check behind the shower curtain in case something's there--nothing ever is. it's also why you were able to manifest something by thinking you wanted it once.

you do not need to "create new neural pathways" or think in your favor 24/7. your negative thoughts act as indicators that you fell out of your desired state, and you can instantly correct this by shifting back to the state of the wish fulfilled. you don't even need to flip the thought. your thoughts have no power, unless you give them power by allowing them to let you wallow in the state of lack.

all that being said, affirmations can help you maintain your desired state. i say maintain, because getting into the state is instant, and requires no technique. however, there is such thing as affirming from lack.

what is affirming from lack? it's affirming to get what you want. it's affirming from a state of not having your desire. it's the same as thinking of your desire, instead of thinking from your desire.

a few months ago, the 10k challenge was going around. it was marketed as a fool-proof way to get your manifestation, because all you had to do was "affirm 10k times to create a new neural pathway which created an assumption." yet so many people affirmed 10k+ times and still didn't get their desire. why? because they were affirming from lack.

quality > quantity. you can affirm 10k times and not get your desire, because you weren't in your desire state. you can affirm once and get your desire, because you were in the state.

so how do you not affirm from lack?

an easy way is to pay attention to your affirmations. mindless affirming is out! this shouldn't be a scary thing to hear, because as we discussed, there's no need for you to affirm 5 million times in order to reach some imaginary quota, because your thoughts don't manifest.

affirm with purpose! create an affirmation that implies you already have your desire, and repeat it with the purpose of conjuring the feeling of knowing. the feeling of knowing may feel like calm, peace, relief, contentment, or even excitement. when Neville Goddard said "feeling is the secret," this is the feeling he was talking about, NOT emotions.

if your affirmations are making you feel anxious, this can indicate one of two things:

affirming is not the technique for you (which is OKAY!!)

you're affirming to get

"affirming to get" is a big debate as well. yes, you are manifesting your desire because you want to get it in your 3D. but in order to get it in your 3D, you must change your 4D first. so you should be using techniques such as affirming in order to change your 4D, knowing that if you change your 4D, your 3D will follow. there is no one to change but self.

if affirming is not the technique for you, there is always visualizing, scripting, vaunting, etc.

also the distraction technique, my fav way to get into the state of the wish fulfilled! hehe

to sum it up:

"it's not focusing so much on getting the objects, but becoming the one who already has it." - Edward Art

where does persisting come in?

you should still be persisting in the fact that you already have your desire. you persist by consistently shifting back to your desired state, no matter what you see in the 3D.

reacting to the 3D, like negative thoughts, is an indicator that you have slipped from your desired state.

it can be very beneficial for you to have self-soothing tactics to use in case your 3D causes you to spiral or makes you anxious. these can include eft tapping, breathing exercises, etc.

your 3D is malleable. if you see something in your 3D that you don't like, you can change it. your 3D is simply a reflection of your dwelling state. if you don't see what you want in your 3D, let it serve as a reminder to shift your state back to your desired state. once again, you change your 4D to change your 3D. there is no one to change but self.

FAQ

question: if you can affirm to get into a state, doesn't that mean your thoughts create your state and that your thoughts technically manifest?

answer: WRONG! like i've mentioned earlier in this post, you enter a state by intention. affirming can help you maintain the state, but your thoughts do not create your state. your state creates your thoughts. every state has thoughts that correspond with it, which is why can manufacture affirmations that imply you already have your desire and repeat them to conjure the feeling of knowing. it's also why negative thoughts act as indicators that you fell out of the state.

question: isn't that the same as someone saying "just assume?"

answer: NO! there are techniques to help you maintain the state. yes entering a state is instant, but there are techniques for you to use to stay in it.

question: are states ableist?

answer: NO!!!! this is something that people are saying on loatwt in order to villainize the people who teach states, and it's frankly disgusting. ANYONE can get into a state, even if they are neurodivergent! you are always in a state! you're in a state right now. i am neurodivergent, as are most of my friends that are states enthusiasts, and it has helped all of us to manifest our desires without driving ourselves to mental exhaustion by affirming 24/7.

question: how long do i have to stay in the wish fulfilled?

answer: it's not so much about how long you stay in the state, it's about frequency. no, not frequency as the law of attraction vibration bullshit, but how often you go back to the state. if you think about your desire 15 times a day, you should shift back into the state 15 times that day. if you think about your desire 5 times, then you should shift back into the state 5 times that day.

hopefully this helps clarify the idea of states for you, and helps you manifest your desires!! <3

if it is yours within, it will be yours without - one way or another.

because the only thing that matters is within. if the only thing that matters is within, it doesn't matter what you think about the outside. you don't have to delude yourself and people around you into believing you have something when you don't. you don't have to convince yourself you have it on the outside. you don't have to escape from the reality you are in.

but you have to accept that you have it within. and because you have it within, you are able to feel like you have it. internal is the only thing that matters.

“things have no reality other than in consciousness. therefore, get the consciousness first and the thing is compelled to appear……..get first the consciousness of the things that you are seeking and leave the things alone”

feeling safe in our sadness: why we choose to stay there

i was in a depressing situation a couple of years ago and it was always stuck with me; it was me in bed, in the darkness. empty packets of crisps surrounding me. the curtains was my guardian angel as it blocked any particle of sunlight. i didn’t attempt to get up, i didn’t attempt to do anything.

magically a tiny part of my curtain opened (im guessing it was because of my sister slamming my door shut which then shook the curtains), the tiniest uncovered part was able to instantly allow the sunlight gorge itself onto my bedroom. covering every inch of it; my lampshade, my bed, my wardrobe, my desk. I slowly got up and looked out to see the trees, the sun, the flowers of all kinds intertwined into one lavish garden. the beauty of nature always has it’s heart beating somehow. it’s infinite and eternal.

I think the reason i chose to stay in my sadness was because i felt unworthy and scared. whenever a sliver of happiness entered my life i questioned it. what have i done to deserve this? whenever i was happy a feeling lingered like a strange stench that just wouldn’t retire.

i knew that this happiness i was experiencing right now wouldn’t last long and i was right- it didn’t last long.

soon enough i found myself in bed, in the darkness with even more empty packets of crisps surrounding me. the curtains as my guardian angel since it did it’s duty of blocking any particle of sunlight. no attempt to get up.

i put myself in unfulfilling situations because taking the risk of being happy & fulfilled felt too far-fetched and unattainable. what if i took the risk and have 0 success?

what if i end up failing miserably?

that was the thought that kept reappearing in my mind and that was the thought that kept me imprisoned in life.

until i deliberately opened my curtain just to peer out the window and see children laughing and dancing with their parents as their car radio blasts out their favourite songs. the sun igniting itself and pouring it’s radiant yellow onto the plants below.

and in that moment i thought: who is actually stopping me from becoming who i want to be? and if i fail….so what? i can only try & try again. somehow, someday i’ll be happy i never gave up on myself.

How I Manifest With States

Step 1. I decide I have what I want

Step 2. I do nothing (maybe watch movies 😹😹💗💗) (or drink ☕️ and chill 💓💓) because now I have what I want, so there is nothing left to do 💓

Step 3. Every time I think about that thing I’ll say “I have it already” and that’s it! Usually this part isn’t even necessary because it comes FAST 🔥

You don’t have to affirm over and over or reprogram your mind, you don’t have to do 💩 to get what you want! 💗 All you have to do is decide you have it now and once it’s done it done, I know this works because once I said “I want YSL Black Opium Perfume so I’m going to have it soon” and the very next day my friend gave me two brand new bottles of it for free 🖤🖤🖤 I didn’t affirm more than once or drain myself with repetition, I just decided I want it so I’m going to have it and the very next day it came to me 💗💗💗 Not even just one bottle, but two! 💕💕

I know we’ve been told repetition is what manifests and that we have to affirm over and over for every single thing we want, but that’s not only not true, it’s also incredibly draining and stressful! Do you think GOD needs to worry about saturating their mind ???

We feel like we have to work for something so we affirm over and over to get something when really you’re so powerful all you have to do is DECIDE

So: How To Manifest With States 💗

Step 1: What do you want?

Step 2: You already have it

• You don't have to affirm 24/7 or affirm AT ALL if you don't want to! 💗 Because it’s DONE! Just decide you have it and tell yourself you have it every time you think of it! 💕💕💕 So let’s use states for someone who wants long hair but they’re bald: “Okay I decided my hair is long so it is DONE. There is nothing left for me to do. If I want I can say “I already have long hair” every time I think about my hair IF I want to but it’s already done.”

Decide you have it, and know there is nothing left to do, you are so powerful you don’t need to do ANYTHING but decide 💗 Don’t suffer with repeating affirmations all day everyday if you don’t want to, because at the end of the day it’s YOU deciding it’s true that manifests, not the repetition 💗

Don’t burn yourself out affirming all day every day for some breadcrumbs, go straight to the end and decide you have it now, so there’s nothing left to do 💗

a lot of y’all are forgetting that you are literally the creator of your own reality. there’s no one “above you” controlling your life. YOU have the remote control. it can seem quite scary at first, but it really doesn’t have to be !

whatever you focus on will manifest. if you spend 1 hour of your day affirming how rich and abundant you are but spend 23 hours dwelling and focusing on the fact that you’re poor then what do you think your 3D is going to bring into fruition ?

also whatever you assume or believe to be true will manifest. if you believe that all men are assholes then that’s exactly what your 3D is going to show to you, & no this isn’t a “limiting belief” it’s literally the law.

it’s literally so easy y’all. just focus on HAVING your desires & not the opposite. live in the assumption that you already have your desires and don’t stop.

i told y’all multiple times where i came from and where i am now.

the old me:

insecure

depressed

middle class

shy

me now:

more confident than ever

mental diet + self concept on 10

high class shit only

rich

fun & out going

thriving with the bf the old me could only dream of having.

i want y’all to always remember to NEVER EVER settle for less. NOTHING is too good to be true in your reality. you’re an infinite being baby nothing is off limits. you want telekinesis powers ? go for it. you want to be able to read minds & control other peoples thoughts ? go ahead. you can be/do/have absolutely anything in this whole universe, anything.
