It's a very fine balancing act. If you too awake from the beginning, tell yourself to just go asleep normally, so you stop being excited. When close to falling asleep, start saying a mantra (you can start earlier, if you not too awake). Mantra should keep you on task, remind you what you doing. Simple mantra like "I'm dreaming" should do.
Sometimes I do fall asleep for a few seconds and then come out of it and this can happen a few times. Hopefully one of these times when you come out of it, you will be able to enter dream consciously.
If you not comfortable sleeping on your back, because this is not your usuall sleeping position, you should switch to comfortable one. You have very little chance to succesfully WILD, if you not comfortable. Happy dreams
