Right now, my routine is:
I go to bed, repeat my mantra, wake up for WBTB, repeat my mantra again, and hope for the best. I feel as if I actually have no control over trying to induce an LD. It all feels random to me. I have never had a DILD that was caused by MILD, WBTB wtc...

I've only had a few (short) LDs which have happened at random times but not during the period where I actually put in effort and practice MILD, most were during periods where I gave up. It has come to a point that LDing seems impossible for me to do... I have sudden surges in confidence only to be shot back down a couple of months later because I hadn't had any (induced) LDs in that frame of time. I feel very unconfident now as I can't even induce a LD using one of the easiest methods with a high success rate... This cycle seems to go on and on as you may have noticed from my previous posts.

Heh, may have let myself ramble a bit too much there... Back on topic. What can I actively do, ie something that isn't based on "luck" like mantras, to help induce a LD?
