Thanks to CL's suggestion I decided to use Starcraft as the thing that was 'meaningful' to incubate. Specifically, I've been really close to getting the 1000 wins achievment for the SC2 Ladder. I don't really take much stock in getting the achievements usually but it's the last one, and took me about 2.5-3 years to get to that benchmark. Anyhow last night instead of getting my last 10 wins before going to bed, I purposely left them for later so that when I went to sleep I could imagine how it would feel when I won the last game, etc, etc. They suggest leaving pictures or items around related to the incubation. My girlfriend made a few origami zerg units. I just put them out on my desk and left my computer screen on some fan art of Kerrigan. I thought about these as I imagined getting the 1000th win.

I thought this was kind of cheesy as I was trying to go to bed, but I just didn't pay the negative thoughts any mind and focused on the exercise as I went to sleep.

I did indeed have the same Starcraft dream several times last night. I'm sure that playing for a while before bed helped the incubation considering I've had them all week. But that can be a lesson learned for incubating dreams in the future as well.
