Hello there!
My name is MrPriority. People usually call me Prio (or Thom, my real name) but you can call me anything you want. As long as it's not Bob.
I decided to start a workbook here because I want to really focus on DILD's for a while. It has always been the practice I can keep up and get succes in so far. I plan to do some WILD later on, though I want to get some experience in meditation and DILD's first. So I believe I will be here for a while. I also have a Workbook in the intro class, though as I said before, for now, I really want to focus on DILDs.
My Experience:
As stated in my profile I have had a total of 17 LDs so far. Almost all were DILD's or MILD's, with one accidental WILD I think. These were all in a time span of about 2 months. This was my first experience in LDing at the time. I started out reading a lot and tying out a lot of stuff, resulting in a LD after only a week. After those 2 months I would get about 2 LD's a week. The main focus of my practise back then was MILD, together with WBTB. Though the 2 things that I feel were the most impactfull by far are 1. Having a very complete and detailed DJ and 2 sleeping a lot!. I used to sleep around 10 hours a day back then. I found that after my first WBTB I would usually wake up after every dream (about every 30min or so). The longer I could keep sleeping and WBTBing the higher my chances of a LD became, though also the shorter the dreams became.
My current situation:
Things have changed a little since then, with me starting school (software engeneering). It took me a while, but I now can complete my study without to much effort, so I once again have a good amount of free time on my hands. I hope to find some good techniques that I can keep up for a longer time, while fitting into my irregular school schedule. I pretty much have to start from scratch for now, since it has been a while. But I am very motivated to get my "second first LD";-)
My practice atm:
I am starting to write in my DJ again as of today. I also want to start up my meditation again. And I have been trying out some SSILD & MILD combinations. Though I don't always have time to WBTB. I have also started doing regular RC's, though I don't tend to put too much emphasis on that. I have never gotten lucid from one, but they do help make me more lucid after my first realization. So as long as I remember to do it in my LD's it's enough for me.
Goals:
I want to get back to regular LD'ing. For now I aim for twice a week, while in a normal school week. A little less when it's busy, a little more in vacation times. Once I have acomplished that, I want to keep that up for at least a couple months.
Well that was all I had to say for now. I hope to keep some regular updates here. I used to post about once every 1-3 days in the intro section, which I liked. So I will try to do that here too. Perhaps a little more at first :D
If you have any questions, do let me know!
