WILDing takes practice and patience, so I think it is a good idea to just pick a technique and stick to it for at least several weeks, then if it's not working, try a new one.
When I WILD, I never give up! I always do it when I know for sure that I'll fall asleep no matter what. So I will either WILD, or fail and fall asleep (this sometimes leads to a DILD anyway).
When you're first starting out and don't know what to expect, it can take up to a half or or so to WILD. After a lot of practice, you may be able to WILD within minutes of going back to bed. One thing I should mention is that I don't have a consistent time for WILDing--sometimes I get to the dream right away, sometimes I'm lying there for twenty minutes. It's always different.
When you WILD, maybe it's better to not make the WILD your goal at first, because if you are lying there thinking about how it's been too long or you should give up or switch techniques, it is going to make it much harder. Instead, make it your goal to relax the first few times, and if a WILD happens, then great. This might take the mental pressure off when you are relaxing. After that, make it a goal to feel HH, then SP, and finally, the WILD.
