I'm not sure what else I can say to convince you of it, short of telepathically sending you a record of my thought processes before bed where I affirm that I can have LDs, have had LDs in the past without even trying to, and will have an LD tonight because it's easy and natural and the direction I want to be taking my life. Nor can I possibly hope to project to you the positivity and optimism with which I embrace that message and drift off to sleep still feeling. It's a great mood lifter... but it has yet to make me lucid in the least.
I'm sorry, but this DOES work for ALL people. Yeah, my response is going to be quite predictable, but it's true. The only reason you didn't have one is because you weren't confident enough. You might have a smidge of doubt in your subconscious somewhere that causes you to think of LDing as a difficult state to achieve.

You ever notice the people that go "LDing is SO hard! I've tried for months and I can't do it!" almost rarely have LDs? While the people that go "LDing is easy, I can do it without effort." Manage to have one every night? Or whenever they want. Now of course, some things are still important. Dream recall, knowing how to do RCs, the amount of stress in your daily life, and the amount of sleep you get are still pretty important.

I've seen techniques on this site that literally have 15-20 steps involved. HOW am I going to have an LD when I can't even remember half the steps? And it's counter intuitive because you start to think "Oh... If I mess up one of the steps it's not going to work!" and then you do all the steps, and all the effort, and nothing. You don't even have an LD! That's why I believe confidence is around 95% of importance to having an LD.

It's really cool how much success you guys have with the technique. Keep it up! I realize an aspect of it is taken from a MILD, but I still like to think it's its own technique.
