Been trying it for a week. Worked only on day 6. What exactly is the message that you suggest to yourself?
I didn't mention it in my post because jasonresno was looking for an alarm-free solution, but thinking about it this could actually be useful for him as well. I found it helpful to set a safety net alarm to wake me up if I failed, the intention to wake up and disable the alarm before it goes off puts some pressure on you to wake up, like how you might have experienced having an alarm clock not go off when you need to wake up for something important and you wake up anyway. In jason's case it would be a risk but I think it would make him even more likely to wake up because of the risk of the alarm going off. In my experience I've also found that the earlier the sleep cycle you are attempting to wake from the more difficult it is, so it might be best to begin with attempting to wake up after 7 and a half hours, and then remove an hour and a half each time until you are waking from earlier sleep cycles.
Since you asked, personally the message I use is "I will wake after (x hours of sleep) and recall my dream", but I don't think the message is particularly important. There isn't a magic phrase that will work without thinking about it, it's more about intention and practice.
