      CLASS NUMBER 2

      Ok folks time for class number two. But first.. an announcement. I have decided that more time/classes may be required to make this class successful. So if I do and classes and more time you may think, "screw that I didn't sign up for this." if you want to I can only grade you on the part of the class you signed up for.

      Ok do by now I am hoping you have started to make a habit of Reality Checking. It is important to make it a habit but... What happens if you just RC because you are supposed to? This is a pitfall for many many many beginning lucid dreamers. You do 500 RCs a day and go to bed thinking, "I will get lucid for sure now." but then you have a dream. Maybe you see a dream sign or a RC trigger. What do you do? Naturaly you RC, but many times the RC will fail and you should become lucid, but you don't! You have done so many RCs without even thinking about it that when the RC actually fails you don't realize it.

      How do you stop this from happening?

      1) When you RC during the day don't expect the RC to pass. Expecting it to prove you are awake, even when you 100% know you are is bad. This makes you brain expect a pass and when the RC fails in a dream your sub conscious thinks it passed.

      2) Pay attention when you RC. When you do a RC think deeply about why you are doing it. Don't just do it for the heck of it.

      Ok so we all should be able to proform those two steps, right?

      Well folks this is a short lesson but it is very important. I have talked to some students who are still having a hard time building the habit so I don't want to over load you.

      HOMEWORK

      Homework for today is to read a few pages of the thread "Stupidest ways you've missed becoming lucid"
      I want you to pick three posts from this thread; Quote them, and then briefly explain why you think they didn't become lucid and or how they could have become lucid by altering their RC or day to day RC routine.

      As always post your homework in the same student workbooks thread you should have made.

      I am also adding some dates for live IRC classes. And I am making an amendment to the syllabus concerning dropping students. Don't worry this useually only matters if a student registered and isn't actually doing the course.
