      Confidence is the key

      I work waking night shifts from 10pm till 8am.Some of my replies on here from different questions have said that my chances of LDing when i go to bed in the morning after my shift will be quiet high due to REM bebound.
      The reason i dont usualy try and LD using WILD is because usualy if im on the shift the next night i worry that im wasting valuble sleep time trying my WILDs plus u need to be still to WILD and my dogs sleep with me =/
      This saturday iv made a goal which is giving me confidence that it will happen.When i come home after my shift on a saturday my gf will be there and she can take the dogs out the room so its just me and my bed....plus i have saturday off so im in no hurry to sleep.Plus friday night before my shift i will purposly sleep less so by the time i WILD on saturday morning it will happen quickly and easier.
      Maybe my battle is the fact that deep down i think for example...yeah i probs wont be Lucid tonight but maybe ill remembrr a normal dream......Due to setting myself a goal and making surre everything is prrfect before i attempt my WILD will mean it will work.Im not the most confident or positive prrson but planning a goal and working towards it and getting myself exited for it will maybe help towards 'my way' of bieng a good LDer =) wish me luck and ill post how well my success will be =)

      REM rebound doesn't matter when you sleep (time of day / night) but how much sleep you missed by not sleeping enough to get long REM cycles in the last cycles of sleep. In a different timezone others are sleeping normally at a normal time and the same time as you after all. As to WILD what would matter is being close to REM, so do Wake Back To Bed when you are near to REM and a longer cycle. In order to take advantage of either you need to be well rested so aim at that Saturday, I am a bit sleep deprived and stressed during the week, and on Saturday I sleep in and am stress free. Last Saturday 2 Lucid dreams quite late 8+am and 10+am, the Previous Saturday 4 lucid dreams from very early 2:30am to the other 3 right in the prime dream time (the cycles just after my normal wake time, for me 5:00am, lucid at 5:40ish 6:30ish and 7:55ish)
      Sure LUCID DREAMS are all fun and games until someone loses a third eye.
