Lucid dreams as a kid an advantage?

I was thinking about lucid dreaming today when all of a sudden I remembered that as a kid, I taught myself to recognize a recurring dream and I would wake myself up from it. I don't remember exactly how I woke myself up, it was either shutting my eyes or blinking a lot, but that is irrelevant. I also remember a few times when I would have recurring dreams of falling, and I was able to wake myself up then as well. At the time I never thought anything of it, so I forgot about it. Could this be a possible advantage to me now days when learning to develop my LDing ability? I had my first LD after only 3 days of trying when I first got started.

Just something to think about :)

Yes, I do think it was advantagous to have some experience in the past. But I don't know if it matters that you were a kid, simply having done something in the past makes you experienced and makes it easy to start again.

And gongratulations and your first lucid! I hope for you that there are many more to come :)

The more LDs you have the greater your odds of having more. So, the earlier you start the more you have the more you will have.
