Hey there,

Are you still paying enough attention to your dreams?

A very common occurrence, especially for newer lucid dreamers, is to get caught up in 'theory' and 'techniques' about dreams, and be so focused on these that they stop paying attention to their actual dreams. They discard anything that isn't lucid as 'just a dream' (or worse, a failure).

I often make the analogy of learning to drive a car. Sure you need some theory, but the only way to really learn how to drive a car is just to get out there and get your mileage in. You can learn anything there is to know about how a car works, what its components are, how its build and how much horsepower it has, but these things won't teach you how to drive.

Its the same with lucid dreaming. You can get so caught up in WILDs and FILDS and WBTB and lucidity levels and ADA and what not, that you forget to simply dream and enjoy dreaming. Yet its exactly this last part that is crucial if you want to lucid dream, in my opinion. Always remember to pay enough attention to your dreams, along with whatever technique or theory you've chosen, or you won't get very lucid at all.

Just my 2 cents,
