    Ok, I think I need to put a few things in writing to help me better focus on dream goals, ld induction, etc.

    I. Dream scene change

    - try at least 5 different scene change techs and improve on their efficiency

    II. Dream place tourism

    - visit interesting places (may include some of last year's toty locations)

    III. Visualization

    - visualize core set of objects and montly objects and perfect summoning in dreams

    IV. Scene selection WILD/from scratch DILD

    - enter dream with predetermined scene elements /location

    V. Element manipulation

    - improve element manipulation skills

    VI. Thought/Self control

    - practice mindfulness in dreams and manipulate self

    VII. Complementary induction

    A. Listen to personalized audio 300 times and comment on usefulness

    B. Other induction techs (to be updated later)

    Edit: corrected IV.

      Good goals! I have been trying a bit of focused practice like this recently, particularly with vividness, and it's a rewarding thing to pursue. I've also been contemplating going back to the 2013 Task of the Year items just because I really want to do them and they feel like unfinished business to me!

      What's the Scratch DILD concept? Is this blowing away the pre-existing DILD scenery for your chosen location?

      Looking forward to seeing your progress on these! I always like watching you knock these goals out!

      Yes, the 2013 places were awesome and worth additional exploring. Imagine adding extra tasks like a temple in the jungle next to AFalls or going inside the Great Pyramid!

      What's the Scratch DILD concept?
      Oops, I missed the from scratch DILD. I decided to give this label to all those immediate after wbtb lds that should have been wild but I missed the transition. I know how picky people can be when it comes to labeling, so I wouldn't dare calling it a wild if I lost my awareness in the first 5-10 seconds, lol.

      But your question led me to think that I can start with a pre visualized scene not only with wilds and from scratch dilds, but also from the void. I guess one could call those from scratch lds too. Or get rid of the existing scene as you suggested - there may be more versions to this!

      Ooo, yeah I like those ideas! Come to think of it, I did get mixed up and go inside some pyramid at one point, although I don't think it was the Great Pyramid. There's just so much to do. In lucid dreaming, just staring at the detail of a single object can be a mind-blowing experience. Take that up to the scale of literally anything you can imagine and it's obvious why we never seem to run out of ideas for stuff to do!

      You've got some great goals ahead of you! This'll be fun stuff and great skill-building as well. Looking forward to watching it unfold!
