      'Cause I have an odd habit of doing things I tell myself not do on a mental level.

      For instance, if I see a funny looking person while I'm walking down the street I'll tell myself don't laugh until you pass them, but end up laughing regardless.

      Also, I remember on one occasion in an attempt to LD by repition come up with absolutely nothing, but than a few nights later, didn't give ld'ing much of a thought and had a very vivid dream.

      That's what has me wondering if an opposite thought pattern could somehow induce a lucid dream.

      Hm, if its what happens to you regularly its entirely possible. You should give it a try and see how it works, just for the irony of it
      “There’s an economic concept known as a Positional Good in which an object is only valued by the possessor because its not possessed by others. The term was coined in 1976 by economist Fred Hirsch to replace the more colloquial but less precise ‘neener-neener’.”

      Well, I see a sort of a problem in this. When you tell yourself not do do some things, it seems like you really mean it. You really don&#39;t (at the time) want to do that action.

      If at a lower level you really want to have an LD, but you tell yourself that you don&#39;t want to, you wont really have it (Or you won&#39;t have it because of the original reason). I&#39;m guessing this is what will happen to you in a dry spell. You get discouraged and you tell yourself that you can&#39;t have another LD. Well, guess what happens then
