Hello everyone,

Here is a quote for Wikipedia (the free encyclopedia):

"Many people report having experienced a lucid dream during their lives, often in childhood. However, even with training, achieving lucid dreams on a regular basis is uncommon and can be difficult."

II probably only have a couple of Lucid dreams every six months (I just started here a few days ago) and I am currently absorbing what knowledge I can of the techniques and intend to practice them for as long as it takes. I just wanted to know (and I think others who are new to lucid techniques would also like to know) what the success rate is like.

I'd love to hear from anyone who has been implementing the techniques (DILD, WILD, etc.) for a significant amount of time (a month or more).

For those of you who have Lucid dreams all the time (several per week), did that begin after you learned the techniques? How many LDs did you have before? How long did it take you to reach your current level?

For those of you who only have a small number of LDs (maybe just a few per month or less), how long have you been working with the techniques? Do you feel you've been dilligent?

Basically I'm curious as to how much the techniques play into LD success and the importance of natural ability.

Thanks!
