      Hi Ivlindless:

      The conclusion I've reached after many years of research is that some people have a natural ability for LDs and respond easily to many techniques. Other people simply don't have a natural ability and for them it takes a lot of work. Confidence is important, but the bottom line is that LDs seem to be ENTIRELY dependent on neurotransmitter levels in the sleeping brain and this varies from person to person.

      Many, many, many times I've been absolutely CONFIDENT that I was going to have a LD (after doing a lot of RCs, mantras, MILD, etc, etc. etc.) but didn't.

      lol Zen, you just successfully summed up my entire objection in four sentences. Three cheers for brevity!

      When I'm truly confident, I don't do anything. When I really fully know that I'm having an LD that night, I just go to bed. Seems like your confidence was faked, because the more things you do the less confident you seem to be.
      WBTBs = 5
      DILDs = 17
      WILDs = 2
      DEILDs = 3
      MILDs = 12

      Total Lucid Dreams = 38
      Last LD = 02/21/08
