Ok, so this is my first time posting on Dreamviews. I have been into lucid dreaming off and on for a couple years, yielding minimal results so far, but it wasn't until about 5 days ago that I got back into it. I began RCing again, journaling, etc. But apparently it really was the intent that I was lacking! I just read this article this afternoon, and for the rest of the day i was periodically telling myself how easy lucid dreaming was and that I WAS going to do it tonight. Sure enough, here I am at 3:45 a.m. having just woken up from a relatively short (several minute) LD. I would say that it has been my best so far just in terms of how textbook it was.. my awareness was raised, a few things seemed out of whack, and risking looking like a fool (i was at work in front of a bunch of people) i did an RC and watched excitedly as my hand effortlessly passed through my other hand! Overall, ill chalk it up to a success. Now i look forward to maybe pulling off a WBTB!

Thanks OneUp for reviving SilverBullet's thread, simple but effective!
