I know what you mean about doing the same things over and over again in lucids. I find it really cool that one of your automatic "go to" activities in lucids is telekinesis. I share the flying one with you, even in really low level lucids. But telekinesis has never been naturally easy for me. Something I should work on more! Anyway, like we were discussing in the chat class earlier today, making the effort to have those 2 or 3 goals already memorized should prove helpful. Personally, I make myself remember them by thinking of them on and off during the day, then again as I'm going to sleep, then again as I'm going back to sleep during my WBTB. I also try to keep them consistent. Unless it's an already accomplished goal, I keep them the same. Maybe one or 2 TOTMs, and then a personal one. I know that I, and others, find ourselves lucid, then end up going for a previous TOTM on accident lol. It helps to reinforce these goals throughout the day. I also noticed that the focus required to remember the goals in a lucid, and then carry them out, is a little bit of stabilization in itself. I can't wait to see what you accomplish next Kraom

Is it bad if I'm getting bitter after having ONLY two lucids in a morning.. I think I'm getting lucid spoiled Anyways, like I said two lucids this morning one was meh, I can hardly remember it. And the other was alright it kind of ended prematurely which was entirely my fault really. But the good news is in that lucid I took a step in the right direction and was able to overcome my impulsiveness and remember the task I wanted to do.

I've been accidentally WILDing more and more lately.. This morning I had a WILD, accompanied by some slight SP and auditory hallucinations. At first I had woken up with the intention to TRY and WILD, but I ended up rolling over and trying to go back to sleep, then I reached this state where I could just start forming a dream. Strangely though I couldn't get the quality to be all that great, it had it's moments in the dream, but overall kind of lack luster. After my initial WILD I would wake up back into the exact same state and be able to form a new dream. So I did it again and then once more after that dream ended. And after having three lucids I snapped out of the state I was waking into, sadly. So even though I couldn't really get that great of quality out of them, it was still better than having no lucids FOR SURE. And, I could still use dream powers and whatnot, I guess I'm being kind of picky about the quality.. it was alright.. Also, I was able to remember what I wanted to do again in my lucids, so that's good. Oh and I tried that 'Omm' stabilization technique and while everything did resonate in my dream, it resonated too much and even I resonated and that's what led to the end of my first lucid.. SO, I don't think that technique is really for me, maybe I'll try it again sometime though, just to be sure. I also found when trying to engage my sense of smell it was throwing me off, I don't know what that's about. Right now it seems like the sense that helped stabilize and increase clarity the most was touch. Although, I forgot about taste! Anyways, Overall, a good morning I'd say and I think that I learned a lot.

It may seem like a little thing, but remembering something in your lucid (something that your waking life self specifically wanted you to remember to do in the lucid dream) is a huge step in awareness in lucidity. And doing this regularly will change the course of your lucid dreams forever. It's like, your lucid self and waking life self are more connected now, and can communicate with each other better. Sorry that the Ohmmm didn't work so well. But there again, it's awesome that your lucid self was remembering the things we talked about in chat.

Haven't updated in a few days. On thursday I had a lucid, don't remember really the length or quality of it. I really should start journaling my dreams again.. Friday, had an insane series of dreams, kind of beyond explanation by words. I literally kind of went insane in this dream series.. This morning, I had a pretty long lucid where I had a kind of friendly fight with a friend of mine that happened to be a DC. I bestowed upon him powers, which I later revoked when he was beating me, kind of cheap, but whatever. Used a bunch of abilities that I'd never done before, was a pretty awesome dream.
