As a result, it doesn't matter when you define your methods - the following 2 are equivalent

after_initialize :aasm_ensure_initial_state

Adds

* includes InstanceMethods
* extends the model with ClassMethods

This method: 
def self.included(base)
  base.send(:include, AASM::Persistence::Base)
  base.send(:include, AASM::Persistence::ORM)
  base.send(:include, AASM::Persistence::ActiveRecordPersistence::InstanceMethods)
  base.extend AASM::Persistence::ActiveRecordPersistence::ClassMethods
  base.after_initialize :aasm_ensure_initial_state
  # ensure state is in the list of states
  base.validate :aasm_validate_states
end
