Thread: 2014 Lucid Goals

I can't find the thread that we did this in last year, but what is everyone's goals for this year?

Last year I had a few goals and I hit most of them. I believe that I wanted 365 LDs and I got 325. I wanted to meditate and sleep more, and I did. I really did well on my goals except for when my daughter was born, that took away lucids and sleep, and I think I would have hit most goals had I had the first 2 months back.

Anyways! My goals for 2014
1000 LDs
Draw up 20 of my lucids and post on here.
Have more persistent dream characters and worlds

Hard for me to think right now since I need a little more sleep, but meh, I will add more later if I remember them. Tell me your goals for 2014!

I kinda gave up LDing at some point in the middle of 2013, I could not have regretted it more! So for now my goal will be to get at least one lucid within January, and start building up from there. Also, well done on your 325 lucids; that's something I can only dream of

Same as you, brandon. I also wan't to have a dream Alter Ego and I wan't to meet my Dream Guide.

how do you have so many LDs

Well I dont really want an alter ego, I want to have someone to go on adventures with! Because adventures is why I decided to LD in the first place!

Jacob! I will PM you the answer so that I don't derail this thread. If anyone else wants the answer, just say and I will PM you!

He's making an entire thread about it, don't worry.

Hmmm, I think that I'll go for the 365 LDs, but I'm going to actually keep track.. I feel like I might have had maybe that many last year, but I didn't really count, I'm pretty sure that I, at least, had over two hundred. Anyways, I'm also working on a recurring dream character to go on adventures with and hopefully be able to use CILD with them because, the only way I'm able to LD right now is WILDs, and WBTBs and sometimes I don't feel like putting in the effort, yea I'm kind of lazy, but you know we'll see how this year goes. Good luck to everyone else with their goals!

I would like to greatly improve all aspects of my dream stabilization and control. 300+ LDs would be nice too.

I'll order what they did, plz(PM).
Sorry for the trouble, but I can't turn down a gold mine!

Edit: I would like to reach 1 dream a week, and be able to go on an adventure, only ten minutes of adventure would be great, maybe 5 of these adventures. And master teleportation using the door, and the portal techniques!!

+ START AND MAINTAIN A REGULAR SLEEP SCHEDULE!!!!!!!
+ stick with ADA/RC, take it to its max and be lucid all night, every night. I want to be Hukif, Jr. by the end of 2014.
+ frequency/consistency: average 1/day by mid-year, 2-3/day by end of 2014.
+ stability and length: make all lucids longer and stable, and additionally experience dreams of 10, 15, 20, 30+ minutes.
+ number: at least 100 total LDs by my 1-year anniversary (end of August).
+ techs: master DEILD, and LD-chain the night away...
+ successfully perform classical WILD, make it a part of my regular practice.
+ give the upper division competition participants a serious run for their money

@everyone
Haha! I love the goals! Mostly fryingman though. shoot higher than everyone else! Even though some of your goals dont match up. I expect you to be at atleast 200 by the end of your first year, since you are planning on catching on faster than me!

I have decided to make a thread for that, what I have learned so far about LDing. It will take me a week or so to put it together so that I can make a good thread with everything that I have learned. Some of it will be speculation and make you think, and some of it you have heard a thousand times!

Also, another goal I want is:
LD 90 days in a row.

I would recommend bookmarking this or putting these goals out somewhere so that you can remember to achieve them.

@dolphin
300 LDs this year? That seems a little low for you, I guess if you are working more on control and stabilization you won't need as many then though.

Well I toned down the 1-year totals from 150...but yeah I'll need to hit multiple/night consistently or get to 1/night pretty much in 2 months to get to 200 in 8 months. Woohoo yeah let's do it!

Schweeeeeeet! Can't wait for that. I think it would be a fabulous service if all the consistently successful more experienced practitioners put together a thorough "My LD Practice" thread. More than anything else, this helps the newbies understand how to bring together all the various tutorials into a practice that produces results. Examples of how you took what you read about and how you adapted it to work for you would be priceless!

Added TOTY to my goals. Had to wait and make sure that they were something I would enjoy doing.

Also, you don't need to hit 1/night to get there, you will just have to get more than one a night later on. DEILD chaining will really jump up LD count if you let it, as you have seen through some of our convos.

My goal is to simply to be able to LD! >_<

How long will this thread take

Jacob. 3 years, somewhere around there.

I am not waiting for this thread to be over to make another one. I am trying to put up a whole history of things that I do and things that will help others LD. I will send your impatient self a small very abridged version in a PM tomorrow or the day after so that you can get a general idea.

Thank you BB for taking the time to do this, it will be a priceless document for the LD community!

My LD goals for 2014

1. Go on a date with that hot chick that plays the new Carrie
2. Go on a full blown skateboarding session around the city without loosing lucidity
3. Save the world from the government that now controls 99% of the world
4. Jump from space to earth and land on Mt. Everest with a snowboard
5. Shapeshift into a girl
6. Shapeshift into a dragon and save the world from aliens
7. Survive a zombie apocalypse
8. Try to create a reapearing dream character that aids me in all of my lucid dream adventures
9. Learn to control the dreamscape
10. Learn Fire,Earth,Wind and Water magick

That's all i can think of now, but i'll think of more when i get atleast 3 of those done!

Have a 30+ minute LD
Sex!
Be a badass knight and go on a quest
Go back in time

@Leo
haha, had to cross check your age with hers. A little creepy at first thought.

Zombie Apocalypse FTW!

8 and 10 are also awesome. I am working hard on 8, and 10 has come pretty naturally. I would recommend using an anime style to start out with it.

@WN
Adventure! Always go on adventures!
