Ok, so I didn't read that chapter (had no time before bed, but I will tonight) but anyhow, what I did do was implement an idea of mine which is that if I have nothing on my mind, I might be more aware. Usually I go to sleep with a mental-note to do things in the morning and such, but last night I wrote it all down on a paper beside my bed so that I wouldn't have to remember anything, and my mind would be free to be clear. So, the result was an incredibly long (like a whole day) and vivid, minute-for-minute dream! It was so clear and real, that when I woke up I could only gasp in awe. I think this might be the first step as I've noticed in my previous LD successes that the more dedicated to LDing the better my chances become.
