For the past 3 days I've started doing a lot better at maintaining (self) awareness throughout the day, I try to do it as much as possible for as long as possible and it is getting easier, I combine this state of mind/technique with reality checks, among with other WILD/expectation/etc techniques, but I was wondering for how many days/weeks I have to do this until I start seeing some results (I had a little dream awareness before but didn't do a RC in the dream).
So I decided to look it up on the forum before making a new thread. And what I found was.. some people saying that reality checks have very, very little importance and they are only good for determining whether or not you are in a dream in the moment and you should work on more effective techniques like awareness, and some people saying that RCs are very important and they should be done mindfully and consistently throughout the day. So which one is it?.. Is there a right answer to this?
