Wow, Wyv. That’s an amazing post. But one question, why would you ever want to not have a lucid dream? 
Oh, and I’m taking the LL mindset info by Robert and blending it with some theories that I gained from WritersCube and that you just reinforced with your post. I will be aiming to LL, but I will only use the critical question to bring on that feeling of awareness. Instead of using the critical question, overtime I’m going to aim to hold on to that feeling of being constantly aware which will consequently result in my being totally aware.
And if you’re curious as to what you said that supported my theory,
Gonna add a comment on that as soon as I can, but now, I have to go eat supper!
