Thread: Q: How to remind yourself of your tasks when becoming lucid?

You wish. VZZZ VZZ VZZZ! Take that!

Slowing down is awesome and I am still far from getting that down. I in fact used to do it better when I had a "I just got lucid" ritual I would practice in waking. So that's my recommendation practice when waking a just-got-lucid ritual: slow down, look around & engage, and ask yourself "goals?".
