No controls over...

Alright, I'm pretty sure you guys heard so many of this but I just needed help badly on my lucid dreams.

I do recognize that I am dreaming almost all the time, but
more I recognize that I'm dreaming more I lose controls over
my dream...
My dream just works opposite, if I try to fly, I fall, if I try to
run, I walk slow... Plus, everytime I try to punch it is extremely hard
and slow...
I keep thinking if I think this way it's gonna happen opposite...
And I really can't get rid of it...
I'm having serious pain on my dreams...

And I have a question about dreams to those of you that are the real masters of dream.
Dream is dream, but, could it ever be saved like a computer memory so it can be used again? Like, if I'm in one building, and I want every single objects on every floor to be where they are even if I go somewhere and come back.
)I really hate if place changes if I turn back...)

Give me tons of good tips about your good stredegies of lucid dreams!

I am new to this Awesome website, so help me getting infos and links.

Thanks! Happy new year.

Next time, try to fall.

If you try to fail, you will fail.

However, sometimes you have to surrender to your own intention. Give yourself permission to just suddenly Know that you are in complete control. The fact that you are able to have lucid dreams means that your mind is capable of fully controlling them.

Right now, in my opinion, there may be a place in the back of your mind where you don't fully believe in your ability yet. Depending on what you're trying to do, you just have to let go, and allow it to happen. There are dozens of techniques for dream control all over the forum, but you have to believe that they do work. Remember that this is YOUR mind. YOUR world. You are in control if it.

This is certainly an issue of your confidence. I suggest you take it easy, maybe spend a few of your lucid moments just calmly observing the scenery and exploring with slower, mundane methods.

Expecting a struggle will guarantee a struggle. Visualise yourself flying before you sleep. If you've succeeded at it before, even for a second, recall that and expand on it.

Another personal tip: Don't fly before you can walk, and forget about running. The feeling of being slowed down while running, as if 'wading through water', is a common dream occurrence. Flying is better anyway.

As for saving and loading: think about what that really means. Remembering the positions of dozens of objects so a scene stays consistent when you leave and come back later? Just to make a dream more like boring old real life? C'mon son, disregard that nonsense! Even if it were possible, do you really want to use your mental CPU cycles on that? Personally, I'd rather leave it to my subconscious to rearrange the unseen scenes as it sees fit. Serendipity is one of the great virtues of dreams!

I believe I said "fall" (refering to him falling every time he tries to fly) not "fail"
My apologies if you weren't talking about my post.

Oh, my bad, John ;) I mis-read your words! Please forgive my dislexia ;)

Thank you all for answers.

Don't worry about it, Rainman. :D Trust me, I've done it too, way more times than I can even remember!

Oh, and your welcome Joon; I hope we helped.

Find the power within.

All of those things have happened to me at one time or another, and still continue to happen after many, many, LDs. The thing that works for me is, assume you can do the action you plan to do. Don't think about how to do it properly, and don't even think about it too much. If you want to walk through a wall, just run at it as hard as you can. Don't hesitate. Hesitation means you doubt your ability. If you want to fly, jump into the air. If that doesn't work, summon a plane so you can fly. I don't know about making rooms and objects identical. In my dream experience, one of the tell-tale signs of a dream is the fact that objects or buildings will be a little off if you visit or look at them twice. Just remember practice makes perfect; we've all been there. Good Luck, hope I helped!
