need help with lucid dreaming!

hey everyone im a newbie to LD's and i really want to have one. i have succesfully been recalling dreams in my dream journal for the last week, and they seem to be getting more vivid. what i want to know is what i should be doing during the day and more inportantly during the night. i have been trying WBTB's with little success so far. last night i had a really vivid dream and somehow i managed to wake up after it, which i like never do. i stayed up for like half an hour after it and then tried to visualise it and tell myself to re-enter it and LD. it did not work though, as i think i lost concentration on it? so yeah if you think i should try WILDing or any other techniques for the night and the day, that would be super. i think i need a specific thing to keep trying, but im a bit muddled with all the different techniques out there. Thanks a lot to all of you who reply:D

you sould do the DILD thec,here is a link DILD Tutorial - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Try MILD (which is a form of DILD) You have to stay persistent and confident though :)

Welcome to DreamViews! It sounds like you are doing great so far.

When you are new to lucid dreaming, all those different techniques are indeed confusing. I suggest starting with the DILD technique or the MILD technique. These techniques are relatively easy, and are therefore considered the best techniques for beginners to start with.

I don't recommend using the WILD technique for a while. Because of its difficulty, this technique is usually only recommended for more experienced lucid dreamers.
