Hey! I’m Centroid, a 15 year-old Parisian!

So, I've been drawn into lucid dreaming by my brother in November last year. At that time, I had read LaBerge's ETWOLD and followed what he said to do for a little under two months. During that time, I had only one semi-lucid dream, so I got discouraged and gave up. However, now I'm much more motivated and want to give it another go.


I'll just share what I had been doing when I first started out:

-DJing, I could recall at least one full dream a night, more often two with fragments of other dreams

-RCing during the day whenever I saw a dream sign (for me: exams, traveling, childhood friends)

-WBTB + MILD at least once every two nights


I've been on holidays for already a week, and have pondered on what I should be doing.

So first off, DJing. This week I have only been able to recall one full dream with plot etc., the other days 0-3 dream fragments. So, I guess I need some time for it to get as good as it had once been. I think here there’s nothing to do except staying consistent and writing everything down.

Now things get slightly trickier, with day work and night work techniques…


Day Work

So from what I understand here, RCing with dream signs is outdated, whereas awareness during the day is very important. But I’m a bit confused with the number of techniques and which one(s) I should do…

So there is the awareness of your environment (ADA or SAT) and the awareness of yourself (Self-Awareness). Now which one is better, or is it possible to do a hybrid with both?

Also, my brother is currently obsessed over the awareness of his own weight (Gravity RC). Would this be a viable thing to do? It’s kind of related to self-awareness i think. He claims he will become lucid every night, so there's competition which is always good (like with the race to space, if there hadn't been the Soviet Union the USA wouldn't have gone far).

So I’m unsure of what to do during the day.


Night Work (with WBTB)

Here I’m hesitating between MILD and SSILD. I have already tried MILD for a very long time with (almost) no result. Also I find it very boring after a number of attempts... However I am aware of the fact that some techniques need time to start producing results, and I have heard a lot about MILD’s reliability.

So yeah, and the other technique is SSILD. It has also been very successful for a lot of people, so I think I’ll give it a try. I will see if it works better than MILD for me.

Oh and something very important I forgot to mention: here in France we have school on Saturday too (lucky us huh), and it starts every day at 8. So I guess I’ll try and go to bed sooner (at 9 maybe) to have time to do a proper WBTB. It might be tricky because I have to study a lot too. Will see how it goes, but attempting a DILD technique only once a week is not what I had in mind.


Anyway enough about techniques, let’s talk about goals!

Short-term goals:
-Recall at least one full dream every night
-Figure out which techniques to use, day and night
-Have one lucid dream

Long-term goals:
-Recall at least two dreams every night
-Use the techniques chosen with consistency
-Become lucid at least once every week, preferably every night lol

Dream goals:
-Fly at supersonic speeds
-Eat a burger at a three-star restaurant
-Summon fire mentally and burn stuff at will (mwa-ha-ha!)
-Use the TARDIS to arrive in a random place at a random century
-Relive the Battle of the Five Armies
-Become a Jedi and fight a Sith Lord, and then destroy the Death Star (again, I know, I’m sorry)


So there we have it, my first post ever! Yay! I think I’ll post my progress weekly, as there probably won’t be much to say every day…

Thanks!
