ok well, I got into intentional lucid dreaming August 2010. I kept foing it until early October. But I hit a wall. At first in Sept I was having 2-4 LDs a week but in October it went downhill. I had barely any lucids in October,November and December. I stopped DJing, I stopped trying all together for 3 months. In Jan 2011, I started doing random RCs. 3 days later, bam, lucid dream and this started me back up. When I first started in Aug, it took me 3 days to get one as well, so I am sorta natural at it. Ever since late January I have been back in the lucid dreaming mode. I have had almost 20 new LDs since late January. After the rest of Jan, all of Feb and this much into March, I'm having the most lucid dreams I ever had. On a weekly basis, I average 3 to 5 a week. Sometimes 2 though but less than more. Yeah there is the occasional week with 1 or none, but not a lot. I love having this many lucid dreams because my hard work is finally paying off. BUT I have had a problem with lucid dreams, and it seems to me getting worse: Once I am in the lucid dream, I can't think straight. I can't accomplish goals because I just don't think right. I am finally starting to stabalize every one but I still fail sometimes. I need to know some good ways to stabalize and clarify the dream. I do voice commands also. And one of the main things that bother me, is my LDs just fade away, I want to set a time limit then end it myself so I can DEILD and have more. I hasd 2 LDs last night that faded and were not the clearest. Here is another problem I face, I can't think of what I want to do. In one I had last night, I did stabalize and think of my goals but then didn't do them. I really need some help on how I can better focus in an LD So I can really get the full experience....thank you
