Thread: Getting over belief problems

I suppose one difference for me is that my first Intentional Lucid was not my first lucid dream. So I knew when I began trying that it was possible. As I had had lucid dreams long ago. I am glad that you said that you have a dream journal, as that would be my first question. Also that you mention that you have had some semi or false lucids, as my next question would be have you had any near misses.

Maybe you should read the stupidest ways you've missed becoming lucid thread, for other peoples examples of embarrassing misses, so you can compare how close yours were.

I'm sure you will be able to become lucid since you are clearly doing RC and dream journal, but don't expect your first intentional one to allow you instant stability, total control and 15+minutes of doing what you want. Realize Lucid dreaming involves many skills and most of them only come with some experience.

So my advice is to keep RC (but not 100 times a day) keep journaling and try wbtb mild and other things until you get some success.
