Success.. again.

So yesterday I took the advice and added mantras to my training. Every time that I looked at my hands and counted my fingers I said to myself "Next time I'm dreaming, I will look at my hands and realize that I'm dreaming."

I kept telling myself that I would look at my hands in a dream tonight as I was falling asleep. So I fell asleep and saw a few dreams and woke up at about 7-8 am. I fell asleep again and saw some dreams and thought I woke up again. So I did my routine RC after waking up. But for my surprise I counted 6 fingers and it was so weird because the dream felt so real and I was almost sure that I was awake. But after confirming that I was asleep by plugging my nose and breathing through it the usual happened again.. I felt my dream just collapsing and I tried to rub my hands together as fast as I could.. But before I even noticed I was awake in my real bed.

As usual, I forgot Atremis' advice in the dream. So next time when I get a successful DILD should I just try to pay attention to the details of the dream and do things as soon as I become lucid since I do not feel like stabilizing the dream right away is helping me at all.. It just makes me think about waking up and everything around me just collapses.

Any thoughts? And thanks for all the help I have received so far.
