I'm renewing my efforts to achieve lucidity again, and I've read through all your lessons. This seems like a really great no-nonsense approach, and I especially like the focus on mental prep. As I was reading I wanted to start right away to establish new habits of self awareness, but one problem - if I think back over what I've done for the last hour or so it was mostly just sitting at the computer visiting various sites and reading your tutorial! But I came up with something that I think might work in that kind of situation - tell me if I'm on target with this or not.
What I would do every 10 minutes or so (approx) was to try to guess what time it is without looking, then glance up at the clock to see how close I am. It involves remembering what time it was when last you looked and trying to figure out how much time has passed, so I'm thinking that's a good effort in self-awareness, or am I wrong?
My thinking is, this could be a good approach for those times when you've been doing nothing but sit at the computer or watch TV - cause otherwise what have you got to be aware of? "Let's see - House was a total dick to everybody but he ended up saving the pregnant nun's diabetic baby but in the process lost his bet with Wilson.. " (wait - actually now that I think about it, that actually could work too.. :lol:).
Anyway, let me know if either of these would work for those times when you're just veggin out in front of a monitor rather than actually doing anything to be aware of?
Not quite on target, I think.
