Hi Dragonsworn,

Welcome to DreamViews forum! Congrats on your first conscious attempt!

However, I cannot answer you on that "how common it is to become lucid on a first attempt?" question since I have been dreaming lucid naturally. So, I cannot answer that from my experience; however, I have had dry spells before and I'd be able to become lucid on my first attempt. It really depends on if you have enough of will to do it. If you just go to sleep, you won't become lucid will you?

Anyways, once again, I say, welcome!
