I wouldn't call it so much stupid as different. One of the things I have great difficulty with is deciding what to do once I become lucid. I literally have endless possibilities spread before me and if I don't intervene I will likely end up doing something pretty boring and mundane. My solution to this is to plan what I intend to do beforehand to a certain degree. I don't plan it completely as I like there to be a certain spontaneity. Planning like this works for me. Again, I don't look my lucid self as being stupid, just completely different. For instance, my dream self can fly, my real self cannot. My real self can decide spontaneously what to do, my dream self not so much. They are both me, but in each case they are bound by different realities. That's how I feel anyway.
