Thread: Too lazy to do RCs

I've heard people talk about things like doing a reality check every time you walk through a door, so then it becomes a habit and you do it in your dreams.

would it be possible to get myself to do an RC when I see or hear a certain thing (eg: I see, say, a clock, and im reminded to do an RC) perhaps by hypnotism or something of the sort?

Unfortunately, I too have become to lazy to do RCs. The day is just too hectic to remember or think about it. We just gotta make it a habit and then we're set.

sounds like it could work to me so good luck and tell me how your little experiment goes

Buy a watch that beeps every hour, and do a reality check every time it beeps. That works really well for me, and even if I don't hear my watch beep in a dream, I do so many reality checks during the day that I'll find myself doing a check out of habit.

yeah. it's a great thing to do.
i do this myself.
always when i hear a "peep" i RC.
got a wrist watch that makes that sound every hour.
i don't know if it's able to do with hypnosis but by motivation it will work.
have things like that to remind you to RC.
Good Luck.

Yeah, I might try the door one. I walk through plenty of those in one day. Problem will be trying to remember but ill try my hardest.

I'm constructing a hypnosis script that not only motivates the listener to do more reality checks, but encourages them to put proper thought into each reality check they do. Anyway, it isn't done yet. I need to finish it and test it. What I've tested so far sounds nice (I'm working on topic transitions). I also need a lengthier induction.

I suggest buying a watch that beeps. It is the all-purpose lucid-maker! Keep it by you while you sleep.

Have you ever let your watch beep at night too? I was thinking maybe this could be incorporated into the dream and be used as a rc cue? wouldn't that be like the novadreamer?

oh my goodness catbus! you have seen by neighbor tortoro too!

I second the watch suggestion. My days are too hectic to remember with any sense of consistency, so I have a watch that beeps every half hour. I find myself doing an impromptu RC a few times a day, but it's not quite habitual yet. Mostly I still rely on the watch to remind me.

What I'm trying to do now is get in the habit of RC'ing every time I wake up.
