Hey, I'm Dxpenguinman and I first read about lucid dreaming 2 years ago on some online forums (I can't remember which), and I was inspired to try it out. I lasted one month and didn't get anywhere, mainly due to my lack of motivation. Since then, I haven't picked it up since although I occassionally read about it from time to time. Three weeks ago, I decided to change that and resumed my LD practice, determined to keep it up until I can LD frequently. I've started a DJ, and I can recall 1 dream a day, maybe 2. Two days ago I had my first LD, but I was too excited and forgot to stabilize the dream, but I awakened even more inspired. And now here I am!

I practice ADA, although I don't really maintain it (something I'm trying to work on) and I use DILD/MILD to induce lucid dreaming. So my questions are: how do I keep up a constant awareness in waking life? How can I make my MILD more effective? And how do I stop getting overexcited and waking up from a LD? I'm planning to update this workbook weekly, although I'll pop in every day or two to check on advice and questions.
