Is anything guaranteed when WILDing???

I'm a tad confused about whether or not a person has to really experience any of the "syptoms of wild", such as Vibrations, HI, and Sleep paralysis. Personally I've attempted WILD many times and rarely ever get all of them. I usually get HI and occasionally Vibrations, but never sleep paralysis. Does this mean im just not really getting anyhwere with WILD at all??? Also, is there any set order as to what should be experience earliest and what should be experienced latest, any help or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated

I have recently found via this web site that I can go to sleep after having been asleep and while in the process of falling back to sleep I tell myself that I am going to dream, that this is a dream, that I'm going to sleep and this is a dream. I also will think about what I expect to see, almost will an image of where I expect to be. Then low and behold the darkness becomes a blurry picture and then more defined and then quite sharp. The whole time this is happening I am still concious of that fact that I am still saying "in my mind" that this is a dream, then I am there having a lucid dream and I can play what ever role I wish. I know that I am in a dream, my dream, and that I can do what ever I wish, or mold the dream in what ever fashion I what, I am in control. But for me the down side is that I know that I am walking a fine line of being asleep and being awake and if I'm not careful I'll wake up quite easily and have to start all over again to have this experience again. I first learned I could go to a specific dream at an early age when in my dream i met this girl and when I awoke I wanted to go back to her so I concentrated on doing so as I fell back asleep and when I got back to the dream and her she actually asked where had i gone and at that point I knew I was dreaming because I never lost the concious fact that I had been awake.

Nothing is ever garunteed. Each person is different and will experience different things when using one of the LDing methods. Also, you just might require a longer period of WILD attempt than most people. This method is a doozy sometimes and can be a hard one to master. Keep trying and keep a positive attitude about it. It will happen soon enough.
