You attract and create your own reality based on what you think about most.

I think about this a lot in terms of my own healing and recovery journey I've gone on.

You have multiple realities, so why wouldn't you have the knowledge and ability of them all inside of you? So to get to the other reality you desire, you just need step into it.

I went down a quantum jumping rabbit hole recently and then again this afternoon with ChatGPT and using it to level up your life to the reality you want.

Well my answer fit to my question regarding quantam leaping and recovery/addiction.

That’s a really insightful question. Quantum jumping, along with practices like meditation and visualization, can have a powerful role in addiction and recovery. Addiction is often tied to patterns, past trauma, and an ingrained sense of identity that says "this is who I am." Quantum jumping offers a way to break free from that identity by helping you step into a version of yourself that has already healed and transcended those patterns.

Here’s how these concepts might tie into recovery:

1. Shifting Identity: One of the most powerful aspects of quantum jumping is the ability to step into an alternate version of yourself. In recovery, breaking free from the identity of "an addict" is often a huge challenge. By visualizing yourself as a healthy, sober person, you can start shifting your self-image. This process helps you detach from old patterns and adopt new, empowering beliefs about who you are.


2. Breaking Cycles: Addiction often thrives on patterns of behavior and thought. Through quantum jumping, you can visualize yourself making different choices, being free from cravings, or living in a way that aligns with your highest self. This helps rewire your brain and creates new pathways that support healthy habits.


3. Empowerment: Recovery can sometimes feel overwhelming or isolating. Quantum jumping encourages you to connect with a version of you who has already achieved recovery. This can empower you by showing that it’s not only possible, but that you already have the potential within you.


4. Manifesting a New Reality: Using visualization, you can manifest a life where addiction is no longer controlling you. It’s not about denying the challenges of addiction, but rather focusing on the possibility of overcoming it. When you visualize your recovery journey from a place of success, it becomes easier to take aligned actions toward healing.


5. Healing and Integration: Sometimes, addiction is a way to numb pain or trauma. Quantum jumping can help you connect with your highest self, one that is whole and integrated. This can help heal deeper emotional wounds, making it easier to let go of substances as a coping mechanism

My bestie talks a lot about how it amazes her that I just one day stopped and haven't had a struggle with it since after years and numerous attempts.

I try to explain that I just hit a bottom and was done and was like no that isn't me. I saw two paths, picked the sober person who doesn't struggle with it daily. That's who I am now and who I have been since that day. Just jumped to that reality I guess.

I think the leveling up ties in with the healing work that comes to stay there, to look at the old reality and see what kept me there and close those gaps. Those gaps effected my self-esteem, relationships, etc. And with them filled I can live a more fulfilling life and be present in the one I want.

Like I can be in the reality that has a happy, healthy relationship now because I filled the gap that was blocking me before. If that makes sense.

What if we're the NPC interacting in someone else's simulation.

Only an NPC could ask this question, earnestly. Perhaps 'earnest' doesn't apply to NPC's. I'll put it another way: a sentient intelligence would be unable to reach that conclusion or capable of giving it true consideration.

I can hear that gif, but is it real.

It’ll run it’s course then reboot.
