Thread: How long will I have to wait?

So I had my first lucid dream some months ago now, possibly even a year ago. I left lucid dreaming and dreamviews for some reason, but recently I have came back and I'm aiming to get my dreaming and Lucid dreaming back on track, I figured because I've already had a lucid experience, surely I won't have to wait long for another one right? But I know all I have to do is improve my dream recall drastically, most nights I only remember fragments, if not anything. I have started writing in my DJ again but atm I haven't noticed any change. However I've also realised it could be more tricky for me to get LDing again due to GCSE's coming up in the next couple of years, but hopefully I can get back on track this year before all that exam stress hits me. So my question is, how long will I have to wait?

As long as it takes. Don't worry about setting a time limit, you'll get there with hard work and intent.

Since you are doing your GCSE's you still have a lifetime to practice. Good things come to those who are patient.

Here's an appropriate random quote from the internet

Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying basic fundamentals.”

Great quote ��

I am in a similar situation. I practiced several years ago, developed decent recall, and had 2 lucids. After the second I thought they would come with more ease, but I became frustrated and gave it up. I came back to practice 2 months ago. I started with an average recall of 1 dream every 60 days. I followed the standard recall advice and within 2 weeks was up to 1 fragment-2 dreams a night. After 33 days of RC daytime practice and dream journaling, I had my first lucid.
My advice would just be to practice RC and awareness training every day, and dream journal every morning. It will come, just be consistent and don't give up!
