Is your recall increasing? That's a sign of heading the direction.

Are you having moments of doubt in your dreams? (like, last night, I was thinking, why are those bananas on that tree so big? This is weird...?) That kind of thing. That getting closer, and a sign of building critical reflective attitude.

Are you having failed RC moments in dreams? (looking at your hands and not becoming lucid?) That's actually a good sign.

Are you becoming lucid for 1-2 second and then fear or some other emotion wakes you up?

That's kind of like the progression I have been seeing, maybe you are seeing the same?
I would say I’m definitely doing enough RCs I set my self 6 daily non related RCs to notice the very next time they happen. I also do dream related RCs I also periodically ask myself where am I? what was I doing before I got here? Then look around , feel my foot on the ground, feel my clothes on the body, I take note of my field of vision periodically I’ll ask when did I get dressed sometimes I will run back through the days events to the point where I got out of bed. I occasionally think what would this scenario look like in a dream.

As for the mantra no it dosent excite me at all!
I’m trying to embed an instruction in my mind.

Dream recall is sporadic 3 nights ago I recalled the longest dream todate this morning a few fragments In the past I’ll have a 3 or 4 dreams recalled then the next night nothing then back to 3 or 5 dreams I could have recall for 2weeks then a 2 or 3 day drought. I could probably work on recall but then again how do you know when enough is enough.


I know the dream signs when I’m awake of the dream world- people I know or people I know I haven’t seen in years, this dull foggy minded feeling that dosent allow me to think or question anything outside of my vision I feel almost like a train on a track there’s a set direction and no way to change direction/pace , Film like sittuations, Usually fast paced actions so I don’t really have time to stop and reflect there’s always something to keep me from taking 10seconds to have a look around and reflect. Other signs -I never look at my feet. I Never notice my breath or blinking, in dreams my field of vision is usually narrow unless it’s very vivid. Forgetfulness- I had a dream where I was asked where my motorbike was and I couldn’t remember because in real life I don’t have a motorbike lol.
