If you find yourself unable to dream in spite of your constant striving, do something rather simple… DECIDE to dream.
Say it in your mind even: I DECIDE TO LUCID DREAM.
After all… we are the sum of all our decisions, good and bad.
Decision kills uncertainty, doubt… it’s a done deal. It’s like a general order to our mind. Just DECIDE to do it. 
yeah,
dreaming is very simple if we pay attention to [what it feels like ] when we wake up, and then focus on where we just were, sometimes we need to get up and focus on the dreams we just had, sometimes we need to go back into them just by being still and letting it do all the work
sometimes a nd even one that we don’t remember well is more valuable than an LD for the information they contain, and the adventures they generate.
Yup,
Decided to LD last night, a few minutes after I read that post.
I had my first November LD this morning.
And in it, I asked a DC which I trust - to come to me every day and fly, so I’ll know I’m dreaming.
I acctually asked my SC directly, so It’ll be powerfull and helpfull.
Well, what do you know,
it worked.
Guess it’s always good to have someone remind ourselves that doubts are the only things that keep us from getting what we desire 
Didn’t work for me last night… 
I guess I have a hard time not doubting things like this. I still have to truely and completely learn and believe that it IS my decision…
I did get SP though, which I haven’t had in some time
Glad to be of service. 
Try to decide that you can decide it. Most people tend to think that most things are beyond their power-of-decision.
Change that. Good luck.

I have had several lucid dreams like this before. But only when I am absolutly sure that I will have a lucid dream. If you have any doubt, it will probably fail. Just like dream control.
