      Sorry, I often do not express myself clear enough, so just forget that and let's get this thread rolling
      Ok, so I'm going to explain my experience and challenges, summarizing as much as I can:

      My experience:
      I've been working on the Gravity RC for a little more than two months. Hukif and Azul helped with my questions. Got into a dry spell, felt I could not keep the RC often enough, and my motivation began to gradually drop by the end of the second month, when I started to think "This technique might not be for me", "Self-awareness OneUp-style feels more natural", etc etc.

      Challenges that I've found, and things I *know* I've been doing wrong:
      1- Dryspell: This technique is a medium/long term investment, I usually get more or less quick LDs with LaBerge's modified Reflection-Intention technique, but with Gravity RC I was not doing very well.
      2- Bad dream recall: I'm not doing well, but this is just a personal problem for me, as I lack discipline for regular DJing.
      3- Not being able to keep the RC going through the day: Quite often I found myself totally forgetting about gravity for hours
      4- Lack of motivation: My head told me to not drop the technique, but I did. So that's a problem with motivation, I think, maybe I should had stablished epic goals (the kind that you need daily LDs to accomplish) in order to keep me working at the Gravity RC.

      TL;DR: Points 2 and 4 are particular to myself, but I believe 1 and 3 are challenges that most people will find when they try this technique.

      If anyone has suggestions I'll be happy to hear.

      EDIT: Just remembered something else...

      5- Mental blocks: For instance, "I'm too old" (I'm 36, but Hukif was in his early twenties when he developed this, and I believe Azul is quite young as well), "What if this is not a technique appropriate for me", etc etc
