Katsuno's Awesome Ninja Tales!

Here's the current situation: I've been out all day and I'm physcially and mentally tired. Luckily I'll go to bed early so I'll get about 10 hours of sleep.

My plan for tonight is to figure out a way to get lucid in a dream (DILD). I've re-read the ADA tutorial and I noticed that I did it improperly for a long time. I'm changing this right now as I'm trying to be aware of everything that happens while I'm writing this entry. I can even notice how my fingers hit the keyboard.

When I go to bed I'll meditate for about 20 minutes, trying to completely clear my mind. And when my mind is clear I'll go to bed.

There's nothing to win and nothing to loose, I won't be mad if I don't get lucid as I'll try to get rid of my ego. If I don't get lucid it simply means I have to change something, there's no mistake.

In case I don't get lucid, I'll write down exactly what I dreamed of, how I felt when I wake up and basically anything that I can notice. That way I'll be able to figure out what I need to change.

One thing is important though, and I just figured this out while writing a PM to Windy: I will do the opposite of what I'd normally do now. Instead of thinking about getting aware in my dreams before going to bed (after meditation), this time I'll just try to be myself in my dreams. My real self is doing ADA all the time so by not trying to change myself I should have a pretty decent chance of getting lucid
Also this takes care of the self-fulfilling prophecy of telling myself to wake up in the morning to write down my dreams even though I should be able to wake myself up after my LD's (which basically makes me expect to not get lucid in the end).

Let's see if just completely being myself and stopping my ego will be the solution.
