A note on the above: the underlying idea behind following the method outlined is that I hope it will create a stimulus/response-type action from the dreaming mind, or perhaps simply a mimicking response by having a strong enough metaphoric relationship to an action taken during the day. By being mindful during the day, you should be more mindful during your dream state, or so the idea goes. I don't have a direct correlation between daydreams and jump cuts, but it is the closest thing I can come to at the moment. So, I am hoping that the dreaming mind will consider doing RCs, state checks, after each daydream as being a close enough correlative that said Pavlovian-like response will develop. I think an auto-responsive action is possibly more reliable than worrying about the dreaming mind coming up with a memory-based or evaluative response to become lucid.

Of course, the dreaming mind may totally ignore this. In that case, you still win by getting naturally-occurring, frequent RCs and mindfulness training.
