How Could I Miss 8 LUCID Signs! ... Grrrr

[ezzolucid]

dear oh dear, so last night i have loads of dreams. Dream 1) I was looking at bubbles in a bath and said to myself 'if i can make these bubbles explode then i must be dreaming' I try to make them explode but they dont so i conclude i must be awake (DAMN - why didnt i just perform my usual nose plug instead!) Dream 2) I am talking to someone and start to ask them how the do DEILD and i discuss this in length ( DAMN - why didnt i do reality check) Dream 3) I am in a pub and see 2 people who cannot possibly be there. I think to myself ' i wont bother doing a reality check in case i wake up ( DAMN - WTF!) I had another 3 similar dreams where my mind was screaming at me to reality check but i didnt act on my instincts All these dreams within the same hour, all i had to do was a standard reality check to enter a DILD, how could i miss so many chances? What happened, so frustrating :-( Ezzo

I feel for you! For the longest time I'd keep having dreams about HAVING lucid dreams but I wasn't ever really noticing I was in a dream.It was infuriating at first. It's good sign though, it means all of this stuff is soaking in. I'd keep consistent with the RCing and doing the same one over and over. Once it is an ingrained habit there won't be any hesitation in doing it in a dream. I hope you go lucid soon!

This is indeed a good sign. before you go to bed tonight refresh your memory about those dreams. visualize them as vivid as possible but get lucid this time. tell yourself i am dreaming. affirm to yourself the next time something like this happens i do a RC and get lucid. you or your brain can learn from this kind of experiences. same if you wake up at night from such a dream. replay it in your head and notice all the odd things and in the end conclude that you are dreaming and get lucid because of it when you fall asleep then with your new set intent and stronger will to notice those kind of cues you will get lucid eventually!
