I am trying to attain lucidity for the last 1 week. I go to sleep at 11pm till 8AM. My general sleep cycle involves waking naturally around 6AM almost every time without having to use an alarm clock.

At 6AM, when I wake up, I do the WILD techniques. But, when I go back to sleep, I am having 5-6 short dreams all of which are unrelated to each other. After each dream, I wake up for a few minutes, then have the next dream. I can remember each dream.

Am I getting close to LD?

I am following the techniques of BillyBob and Jamie Alexander. I use the lucid affirmation "When I see my hands in my dream tonight I’ll become lucid". Problem is that in each of my dreams, I am never looking at my hands. I use them but never look at them with any purpose. So, do I need to find another anchor or eventually I will end up looking at my hands and remembering the lucid affirmation?
