How can I ensure future success?

**yost** · 07-02-2014 08:06 AM

This is huge for me. I finally have succeeded. I have had 4 lucid dreams in the past two weeks and 3 in the past 4 days.
I believe the factors at play that made this happen are:
*Sleeping long hours
*Not the most comfortable bed
*Motivation from previous success
*Having to pee before I wake up

All of these factors will change when I go back home. At home I wake up for school, I have a perfect bed, and I generally lose motivation.

So what can I do right now, having had my first two real lucid dreams in the past two nights, to ensure that I will continue to LD when I return?

Note: I am not doing reality checks or even journaling or any other thing, just so you know

Thanks

Just follow all the advices you have in the tutorials on this page.
However the most important thing is in my experience the enthusiasm and the motivation.

Since you aren't practicing any techniques, I'd have to say it'll be hard, but with strong motivation and actual intention to LD, it'll work.
Well, if it's hard to get motivated, try to form adventures, plan them, get excited about doing them inside a LD. Plan the settings, the characters, intensity, mood.
Still, if there is one thing you should practice for LDing, it's to get used to the idea that you might be In a dream at any given moment. The more you get used to this idea, the more you'll conclude you are dreaming while in doubt.
