Thread: RC help

the reason you think that way in dreams is becasue its only your sub concious that is active, which is why RCs do work, because they make you realisse you are dreaming which makes your conciousness active.
i think what that thread was probably talking about was dream signs, if you see a dream sign, then you do an RC.

RCs really do work, more than i thought they would at first. you need to get into the habbit of it, do many RCs every day, make it a habbit so that it happens in your dreams, because you do habbits in dreams.

okay, thanks for explaining. i was unsure that it would work at all, because IRL i never think i'm dreaming.

when i'm awake and i see a dreamsign, i know actually awake, and feel like the RCs are pointless.
but if they will work, i'll try them. thanks again.

That's just the thing, if you keep that kind of mindset it'll be the same thing in your dreams.

The more you doubt, and doubt seriously the state of reality you are currently in, the more you improve your chances to LD

The main points have been said, but the more you do it in real life (particularly when confronted by an implausible/confusing situation) the more likely you are to do it when dreaming.

in waking life, things somehow seem somehow more vivid than dreams.

i keep thinking that RCing won't help, because when i'm awake, i never actually have any doubt that i am, and this thread said not to RC unless you suspect you might be dreaming. http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ad.php?t=55740

I posted a similar question, that my real life is just ordinary and there's no doubt that I'm not dreaming. I've tried to do random RC but I keep forgetting to do them seeing as there's nothing that would make me suspect I'm dreaming.

Can't seem to get my head around it.

I've got a habit of smoking, but I've never smoked in my dreams so I don't understand how that could work.
