Ive had a lucid one before and it felt funny first.
I couldnt even get off my bed.
And by the way you cant just have anything you want.
I tried imagining flying by I busted my arsenal on the floor
If i wanted Pizza i have to pick up the fone and order it.
The key is you have to BELIEVE that these thing will just happen.
I dont know how to do that.
HOW????????

Yeah, I have the same problems...

My answer is just to practice.

I've always wanted to do the gun rack thing, that'd be so fun.

"Free... your... mind..."

Let's drag Star Wars into it, since I'm sick of hearing about The Matrix:

"I don't believe it!"

"That is why you fail."

I had a lucid dream where I was shooting at someone with a revolver when I ran out of ammo. I tried to just tell the gun to have more bullets, but that didn't work, so, I did something like the Jedi do: I waved my hand over it, and voila, it's full of bullets again.

What, you don't think the Jedi really need to wave their hands around to use the force, do you? I figure they're a bit more like lucid dreamers... if you attach a physical action to something you're really only doing with your mind, it seems more real, and thus tends to work better.

You have to be creative about solving your dream problems - or, at least I do. Don't expect to just make wishes and expect them to come true right away, you've got to fool yourself a little, play along with the rules of the dream...
