^^Thank you! That means a lot coming from you Sageous, one of the all time greats! (and someone who I learned a lot about proper LD'ing from) You mention newbie and veterans alike and I was thinking the same thing after I started this thread, thinking I should have opened up the title of the thread a little. It does seem to be a good reminder for more than just newbies. I do feel that newbies can come into LD'ing with a special advantage in this department. It is also rather satisfying for those more experienced to, within the LD, overcome a challenge that you read about. It seems to help to be creative within the dream especially and there are often many different ways to resolve a challenge, but first and foremost is to stay calm and keep an "I got this" attitude.
