      Suggestion/content control can lead to LDs

      Tonight I induced an LD by suggestion as I was going to sleep, just thinking to myself, "I will have an LD tonight, and I will do X (in this case, ask a DC questions)." That kind of suggestion might be useful for experienced LDers in a dry spell--just think it, then let go of the thought so it doesn't keep you awake.

      It occurs to me, though, that suggestion probably helped me stumble into LDing when I didn't even know what it was. Around the time I started having LDs, I'd been experimenting with dreams, thinking about a person I'd like to meet or a setting just before bed. On at least one occasion, that person became a dream sign (tho I didn't know what it was at the time)--"Ah, there you are, so I must be dreaming." For new people having trouble, this might make a good intermediate step to true LDs.
      If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama

      hey thanks i have thought about a person before i went to bed and most often they have popped into my dream but i never considered using them as a dream sign! This is a really great idea as im am going through a dry spell.
