New-ness

To begin with the introductions, I am best known as theCambino. I have been studying lucid dreaming on and off for almost a year now. I have had many close attempts to obtaining a lucid state, but I am still looking to achieve my first lucid dream. I have been lurking the forums for answers and advice for the longest time now and figured I should sign up and introduce myself to the community.

So here I am.

Hey! Welcome to the forums, theCambino. Now that you're registered, you can post your own personalized questions, and hopefully someone can help you out in any area you can't figure out by yourself. Stay motivated, and good luck.

Ey there my friend,
Welcome to DV. I bet you'll have a good time here. Have you already chosen an appropriate method for yourself? If not, try out Mancon's http://www.dreamviews.com/f12/find-o...2/#post1774609 article. There's the DILD, the MILD, and the WILD. With DILD as the easiest and WILD as the hardest. So feel free to choose one. Also, have you already gotten yourself a Dream Journal ? It's important in exercising and assisting your dream recall. If you've got questions, feel free to reply back or approach any of the dream guides(knowledgeable in LDing) in this dream guide list . All you need is patience and confidence in yourself. Good luck in the field of Lucid Dreaming

Thanks guys. I've been checking out most of Mancon's stuff; great tuts. Since I have started attempting lucid dreams the first time, I have been attempting DILD. I have tried WILD a couple of times, but for my schedule I can't stay asleep with WILD. Awhile back I have came extremely close to flying on command which would of told me that I was in a dream, but instead I accidentally had woken myself on command... which seems like I can awaken on command at any time I feel the need, but I need to instead learn how to notice that I am in a dream as opposed to sabotaging the whole dream itself.

And yes, I have kept a dream journal since day one. Eventually I will reread the entries to better find my dream signs.

Thanks again for the advice.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. If you could find a time to fit in a WBTB, it would be a huge help. Even trying once a week will greatly improve your chances.
