How's your dream recall these days?

I recently realized that there's a (huge) difference between "desire" and "need" -- real results come from "need". You have to create the need.

I've gone from having one lucid dream a month if I'm lucky to basically lucid any night I choose. That is from determination and from having a burning desire to get lucid

That is what I call "need," and is probably the single-most important factor in success in dreaming (both recall and lucidity). Everything flows from this, you change your life for a need, a desire can last for a long time but you can put it on your mental back burner and let it simmer there for a long time.

Well in my case is the both, i need to lucid dream and i want to.
but i can't find any motivation to keep going on, even so i can always remember 1-2 dreams every night
and recently, i am not writting in my DJ anymore.
Anyway i keep telling myself that i can do it, and if i've done it before
i can do it again, but it's not easy, it's not more than words to try to increase
this "fake" motivation.
It's like i give up, but i didn't
It's a strange feeling
