To answer your question...People's first Lucid Dream's, depends on the person. Every single person's first lucid dream is different. Your First One, to you, wasn't that great. Does it mean you are going to be doomed to eternal blurryness, no!

Through time, the more and more you practice this, the more and more you get better.. There have been people that have been doing this for a while, even myself, that will tell you, each Lucid Dream is different. I myself took a break from Lucid Dreaming for a while, and had one every now and then--when i use to TRY to have them, i was having them on a everyday basis---but now, when i am just starting up again, my Lucid Dreams are nothing more then a couple seconds... But Just Like You, If I were to keep at it, I would get back to where i use to be in no time......see what i am saying.... Just hang in there
