Though, as Zoth pointed out already, your message is mostly positive (but not without some errors, for instance that LD'ing is natural, when it is just the opposite), I'm not sure if it is terribly informative or novel. Be assured that though invoking the Law of Attraction -- desire a thing strongly enough and it will be yours -- is a fine idea, it is by no means a new idea to these forums. Indeed, a basic tenet of successful LD'ing is a positive attitude and strong mental preparation, as most of the better tutorials here already point out. Most successful LD'er's here already have that built into their routines.

Thanks for sharing, but it would be real nice if you actually offered something new. Will there be more?
Well a major theme through out the post was about (As stated in the title), unlocking lucid potential. It is not (for the most part) an informative guide, it is more of an inspirational push towards a very confident mind set about lucidity. Of course lucidity isn't literally natural, yet the belief that it is can really help a dreamer out. Based off experience, I've never become lucid without actually wanting and focusing on it with deep intent throughout my day. Of course this isn't the only way anyone will ever achieve lucidity. If someone isn't able to achieve lucid dreaming, it is in no way just there problem. I do believe that they have to make it their responsibility to work towards it, and not fully rely on the guides and internet tutorials. But as I said in the OP "I don't doubt the unlimited potential of what can be taught through sites that connect people across the planet to aspire to a common goal." These guides and tutorials posted across the internet have been used, and proven by multiple people. Which gives them major credibility and the potential for great aid in achieving lucidity. Aids. Thats all they should be. Crutches. Not actual exact guidelines. That's why the other major theme is about Your attainment.

As I explore this forum more, I have seen what you said is true. The whole "positive thinking/law of attraction" thing is quite prevalent in peoples explanations to efficient lucidity. I feel mine is from a fresher perspective. Yet I can see how redundant it can get. Your right! We need something new! A ground breaking idea! Something revolutionizing! Hell, we have a whole forum filled with bright minds and people with the lust to learn. We have to use this advantage and take the next steps in lucid dreaming! To answer your final question, I will definitely have more of my thoughts to come. I want to reach something greater with lucid dreaming (as I said in the last part of the first paragraph in my op). We all have the power to create whatever we want. Lucid dreaming has showed us that. I want to be part of the group that got to say, we helped CREATE the idea that changed lucid dreaming forever! Evolution is imminent in a dimension with infinite possibilities such as the dream state. Lets be apart of that evolution.

Thank you so much for pointing out the questionable things I have stated in this contradicting post. Even when I read it back I question what I wrote lol. But hey, what's better than a post that provokes thought and challenges others beliefs?
