I get those random thoughts a lot as I'm drifting off to sleep. But the second I notice them, I completely wake myself up. |

Today I took a nap during the day, I had slept for a few hours, and then my younger brother kept making noise and coming to my room to pet my cat. So I was awake and I remembered that I had those "random thoughts" pop up several times as I tried to sleep but kept waking up due to my brother's noise. So I told myself 'The next time I have a random thought I will know'. I close my eyes and one second later 'Lord of the rings' pops up and I say 'Now!' and poof I was in a lucid. |

Every passing minute is another chance to turn it all around.

I have the same problem... as soon as I notice the "Random thoughts" more consciously, I snap out of it... I usually do some daydreaming/fantasizing/visualization when I go to bed. (It takes me a minimum of 30 minutes to fall asleep and I use that to keep the stressful thoughts of life at bay). Eventually, my concentration for the visualization fades away and the random, unrelated thoughts start coming. |

Well, I was just walking around the house and looking at things, I think this was my most vivid lucid thus far. I saw my sister in the hallway and heard my brother in the kitchen :p I went to the bathroom to jump out the window but the window was smaller than usual so I couldnt get out there(I've jumped out of there before, weird!). |

What do you mean by "Random Thoughts". My thoughts are weird and confusing in the waking day how can I tell the difference. |

Maybe you discovered rild? u could get riled up bout that. |
|
Awesome! It sounds like you entered a dream directly from the waking state, using the illogical/random thoughts as a cure. |
|
We all live in a kind of continuous dream. When we wake, it is because something,
some event, some pinprick even, disturbs the edges of what we have taken as reality.

Yea, its like before your falling asleep, your mind will almost automatically start thinking of stuff without you actually thinking those thoughts. And usually right when u notice the thoughts, you'll wake up. |

So you guys are saying that if you continue letting those thoughts come but remain only slightly aware without waking up, you will soon enter SP and a LD right?? Im just making sure cuz I have noticed this happening too in many of my WILDs |
|
Yep, you just have to make sure you don't slip unconscious, and keep passively observing the weird thoughts! Have you read Jeff777's free-falling WILD technique yet? It delves a bit deeper into how you can use the thoughts to your advantage when WILDing, and how to induce them quicker. |

I tried this, but as u can see, I still have a zero lucid count |

Okely-doke.
I'm gonna dream the lucid f**k out of tonight. >:3
Those random thoughts are so strange. It's like my mind is thinking without my control, which sounds like a contradiction in terms itself. Every time I catch one and try to analyse it myself, it makes so little sense it's almost laughable. However, only a few seconds ago it was a fully formed thought and the connections in it seemed to make sense. It's a bit like logic takes a rest and lets random thoughts run free. I'm going to try and passively observe them as Puffin suggested, I like the sound of that. It will be hard as hell not to just become completely alert again upon noticing them though. |

You should have just walked through the wall. Screw going out the window. I remember my first few lucids I kept trying to go out the door, but eventually I figured I could just run through all my walls until I got outside. But most of the time id wake up as soon as I lifted off to fly lol. |
