Thread: Can someone tell me where I go wrong?

I'm not saying you went wrong anywhere. Everyone's methods are different and you can't lucid every attempt unless of course you've mastered it. I would concentrate on the visuals images and work with that. Counting is a way to stay focused but easily distracted. I feel; it's easier to follow an image into the dream world than it would be to count to some high number only to keep yourself awake.

And you can try other methods like self-hypnosis. Theres a whole tutorial on it in the Tutorials Section.
