Thread: SilverBullet's Key to Lucid Dreaming Revived

It is not that I do not agree. This is the "anime approach". Note Kamina:


You need this approach to accomplish anything in life, you gotta believe.

LDing is a lot of "breaking down mental barriers". If someone does believe in themselves, then they don't need a thread like this. If they don't believe in themselves, then a thread like this will just make you frustrated and further from the goal. Especially with phrases like "do or do not, there is no try." In order to do anything, you have to try it. Having motivation will make it easier to try. Having negative expectation will hinder, having good expectation or no expectation will allow you to perform to your ability. So when you said in the "Sensei's secret's thread" that you did it for a few days and you didn't feel like you were gonna LD, you didn't have it on your mind, and you were stressed out (doesn't matter what kind of stress, it effects your dreaming), according to my beliefs in my secrets thread, all of those things will negatively effect your dreaming. The other nights, you didn't have any of those negative things effecting you.

When I said "do not try, just do" I was referring to the fact that that dude can "do", no doubt at all. Sometimes the definition of "trying" to some people has a negative meaning, thats the only reason I implied the word "do" into it, to give that guy a positive look at it. But I understand where you're coming from Sensei, but there is some scientific evidence of the brain that also backs up what I tried to cover in this thread, its alot, but if you havent already, read my reply to Brite. I watched this documentary about the Super Conscious mind, very interesting, but it basically covered that if you have a goal that is mental(inside of you) then you can get it almost immediately. I can give you the link if you want.
