I have been trying to go straight into lucid dreaming before even having decent dream recall(Brilliant -_-) the last few days. I decided the WILD approach seems common and successful, so I tried it along with binuaral beats. I listened the first two nights to the beats to calm down, relax, etc. They helped me get into (delta I think its called?) state, or really relaxed state, but did not put me into sleep paralysis. After only using the beats twice, I can lay down and easily relax within 2-3 minutes, to where my face feels heavier, my arms, hands, legs, feet are like sleeping, or relaxed.
Problem is SP never really hit me(I wasn't moving at all), and I remember the next step to lucidity through WILD is thinking of a memory, or something you can remember a feeling of, a smell, sight, sound, etc(any sense) of vividly.

I get a lot of darkness, then a slight thought. I try to rub my hands(mentally, not physically), feel them, see them, etc to pull myself into lucidity, but I just end up losing the thought, having it as just a thought. Not a dream..
After a few trys I just end up falling asleep, and waking up remembering nothing.
Is there something wrong with my creativity, something I just need to practice every night, or what?
For sleeping arrangements, I try the WILD on my initial going to sleep at night, since I never wake up in the night. It is mostly dark, completely quiet, and I sleep in kind of a lazyboy, dual chair..thing.. >.>
I.e, I can't lay completely horizontal, but I can lay still, fairly comfortable, and have been sleeping on it for over a month and a half.
