Hi, I have been wondering for a long time how to influence what I dream at night. I'm going to assume that WILD is the best way to get the dream you want, because your brain is thinking about what you want to dream about, but I have some problems with it.

Problem 1: I think about what I want to dream about, but because my brain is busy "thinking" I can't go to sleep, or am not able to sleep.

Problem 2: I think about what I want to dream about, but I don't think too hard about it because I want to go to sleep easily. but when I go to sleep my dream can be the most random thing ever, not even something I would ever think about anyway.

Any advice on how I can think about what I want to dream about without staying up all night because my brain is still "active"?
