Though how one would be intimidated while making a speech to crowds of people who are actually just figments of your own imagination, in a world that you are literally a God of, is a little beyond me but I haven't made a speech to DC's so who am I to say anything on the subject.

As for practicing Ji-Jitsu I cannot say, however I doubt that a person is capable of practicing such a complex physical activity in their dreams. I doubt this because of the simple fact that you are not bound by any physcial laws in dreams, and thus nothing can prevent you from cheating or praciticing something that you are completely incapable of doing in real life. For instance, a person who has no prior experience in karate, Judo, kung fu, or ji-jitsu in real life is completely capable of performing a 360 flying tiger-ninja kick while eating a omlet.
Now would this person actually learn something from that experience? Maybe. Would he learn anything useful? Almost certainly not.
You may be able to practice simple things in dreams, such as riding a bike, but highly complex motions and movements may not be possible.

Ofcourse I am not a neuro-scientist so my opinions carry little weight. That's just my 2 cent's though.
Definetly some good points.
Maybe you would be able to apply physical laws to yourself or something like that, considering your effectively a god? Perhaps it would work then. I wouldn't know though. Because as i mentioned already I never had a lucid dream.
Guess I'll have to try for myself once in the future when I'm good enough at lucid dreaming. (Unless someone has actually tried it)
My enthusiasm is still as high as ever!
