It's Not Fair
Okay. My friend, Tim, thinks WAY different than I do. He's a total analitical (fuck it I'm not going to google for that word) thinker. Anyways, he always has lucid dreams. Always. For people here, imagine every dream that wasn't lucid, lucid, and every dream that was lucid, was not. This is what it's like for him.
Me on the other hand, lean toward the other end (Whatever that would be) and actually, has only had one, and that's only because I lost it and did reality checks every five minutes (literally) 4 hours before I went to bed. It's not fucking fair. It's like when I slip into that sleep paralysis thing, my mind instantly clouds. I've had dreams showing fog moving in on me, seeping through walls that I build, and eventually making a zero visual. But, Tim also says he never can control his dreams, it's sort of locked in place. But I can do anything, when I'm lucid that is. I once made water fall from the sky, made a dude shoot another dude, reversed time, used psychic energy to save that dude, then made a building fly up from the ground. So I suppose this evens out. I think this plays into the whole gender mind thing, that test at bbc. I just never heard about anyone else having a lucid dream every night, you know?

well, life is unfair as people are born different...
your friend has low-level lucidity, and can easily practice to be a master.

Prince Charles was born rich, but whose richer now, him or Bill Gates?
I know what you mean though... it's always those who are "undeserving" have the natural abilities... grr.

there's no such thing as unfair. jealousy is a wasted emotion--use that energy to get better at lucid dreaming and you won't have any reason to complain. all it takes is dedication, and if you are already good at dream control, all you have to work on is inducing lucid dreams, so cheer up.

Try not to compare yourself with others, they have an environment and perhaps even the mindset that you shouldn't be thinking of competiting with. Only compete with yourself, because you are your only true measuring stick for success with LDing.
Take baby steps, get good at recall, make LD induction exercises 2nd nature, and they will come.

Hmm... My brother and I are very simelar in our world outlooks, we are both creative types, he had lucid dreams all the time, I have them rarely.
I don't know what the difference is.
