Thread: You are or aren't

This is stupid, it completely neglects that some people just can't lucid dream through confidence only. It's like you assume that all people know exactly why they don't believe in themselves.

Well here's the deal. A lot of people don't believe in themselves subconsciously, they think they do but really they don't. How will they be able to lucid dream just by believing if they subconsciously believe that they can't?
Guess how they can learn how to lucid dream? by using methods consistently and building up the ability to lucid dream, thus building up their own confidence.

Your "inspirational" post works for the 1% who have the determination and abiltiy to just believe. For everyone else, who have hidden doubts (or cowards as you like to call them) there are well established methods.

After using normal methods and having the "experience", you're expectation will change. Then you will be able to do it from expectation. That is why every lucid you have is important, it gives you the confidence (expectation) from each experience. That is why each lucid is easier if you keep trying and don't give up. If you give up and come back, you start from a lower point than you started before, because subconsciously you don't think that it is important.
