For awhile I've been working on the WBTB technique. I have had a little bit of success with lucid dreaming this way but unfortunately I'm going to have to get a job ASAP so I probably won't be able to practice as I've been doing. (I'm going to need to get proper sleep).

I have started doing reality checks on a daily basis, particularly pinching, and this has alerted me in a previous dream before that I was dreaming. Do you think reality checks can be enough or do you HAVE to use a method to get good at it such as WBTB?

I hate that I'm going to be giving up time which I would otherwise be able to dedicate to my LD goals. If it weren't for that I would be completely over the moon about working!
