Out of control

[jmp]

All of my lucid dreams now come from DILD's. I find this semi-passive approach easier, as all I have to actively do is reality checks during the day and I do not have to disturb my sleep time. Though that may have no revelence it is there if need be. When I become lucid I have no trouble flying, and never have, but when I try to do something else, lets say shoot fireballs from my hands or moving objects with my mind it doesn't happen. No matter how much I try to will it to happen. This is driving me to despair. Now why I am so distraught over this is that I used to have complete control until I started to use DILD's as my only method (hence why I included the first paragraph). I would not like to move off only using DILD's. Any advice on improving my dream control?

This happens to me also sometimes. I just can't change this or do that in my dream, even though I am Lucid.

That's a lot harder to do. Just practice and start small and close. Take something really small and put it right in front of you and use your hands to will it to levitate, then work your way up.

Hmm makes sense, I can do things like punch people and the fly back. But when I'm not physically touching them it does nothing, even when I want it to. I will definately try building up from small to big. Build the foundations so to speak.
