I started LDing about 4 months ago it took me 1 week to get micro LD’s in two weeks I got my first good LD.
I didn’t have DD but I managed to remember atleast 1 dream per night. I was lazy but worked a little all the time. I performed RC’s very occasionaly too. Somedays not even one, and sometimes more often.
Now when 4 months has passed I keep DD occasionaly and I can remember all my dreams almost every night. I have atlest 2 LD per week and some times 10+ LD’s in week. Almost every night when I have a LD I have another after it, and I have learned to prolong my LD’s and I consider myself good at it.
I don’t wanna boast about how good I have became in LD’ing I wanna give hope and an example about someone learning.
I sometimes in the early days had even 3 weeks without LD’s. In one point I thought I had lost my ability but I had a LD and became confident again. So DON’T give up even if u have little success now and then.
Things I do: RC, DD sometimes when i have interesting dreams, LD’s I write everytime.
At sleeping time I relax properly then count in 300-400 and repeat my mantras which I change alot but the thought behind them is same. (example: im going to realize tonight that im dreaming and after that im going to perform a RC) and while repeating the mantras I visualize myself doing it. And I have taught myself into to the habit of waking up after dreams and I WBTB once or twice.
I give my thanks to all the people on this forum and the people behind these sites from welcoming me into the world of lucidity.
This sounds like an farewell message or something but I just wanna put more confidence on the people who are unlearned on LD’ing and are trying their very best.
