Hi Ebtn, and welcome to the DILD class! Some notes, based on what you wrote above:
Cultivating access to memory is, as Sageous writes, one of the fundamentals. So working on memory is bound to lead to increasing good results in your LD practice.
Impatience, IMO, is a hindrance to lasting progress. I well understand the "but I want lucid dreams NOW!" perspective. I used to have it in the beginning. It's a positive thing to have drive and motivation if it pushes you to add positives to your practice, but only if it doesn't lead to frustration and negative thoughts, which in an all-mental discipline like LDing can cause stalls and dry spells.
I think it's a good thing to be always evaluating your practice and to think about how to change things around to keep things fresh. As long as you always have your eye on the key fundamentals, the specifics of what you do don't matter so much.
In addition to memory, the other fundamentals are heightened self-awareness and dream recall/awareness. Find ways to work on these every day, even if just a little bit.
I'm not a fan of classical ADA. Instead of ADA, why not try being AAD (aware, all day)? Don't focus on being hyper aware of minute sense input, that's exhausting and has few (if any?) benefits to waking life. However, mindfulness and living in the present moment, paying attention on purpose, being "aware of your awareness," in addition to helping your dreaming practice, can also lead to a much more enjoyable and fulfilling waking life.
There are many practices that lead to increased LD chances on any particular night. WBTB is highly effective for most, try it out and see if you can find the sweet spot for you in terms of timing.
Instead of "adding WILDs to [your] schedule," why not just try paying more attention to your experiences in the night? It sounds a lot like what you were doing in your last post. The benefit to the paying attention/mindfulness approach is that you can do it both while awake and while falling asleep (and while being asleep, in dreams!).
The more you practice being "aware of your awareness," the more you'll want to keep being in this way. You'll catch yourself having "zoned out" more and more. I think this is the key to frequent LDs. It takes time to build up awareness, but it's a snowball that just keeps rolling and growing larger.
Good luck, and keep us informed about your progress, and let us know if you have any questions!
edit: I'm also a fan of Ctharlhie's threads. I have compiled a list of other threads I think are particularly important, you can see that in the DILD class folder,
