<center></center><center>[Source](https://pixabay.com/en/background-paper-stationery-3138516/)</center> ## <center>Must Think About This All The Time!</center> <b> So, yesterday and even today, I didn't think enough about lucid dreams throughout the day. Sure, I go to bed pretty excited, but I'm sure that I fall asleep thinking about something else. Plus, there are times where I forget to do any reality checks for a few hours. If I want to achieve lucid dreaming fast, then I have to think about it all the time. **I can't let my mind forget about it for 2 hours!** *That's just too much...* So I opened up my Awoken app and checked out how many times does it notify me to do a reality check. Apparently it was just 4 times in a day! That was way too low, so I changed that... **Now, it will notify me 30 times every day!** I do 30-50 reality checks even without the app, but sometimes the time gaps in between can be quite long, up to 2 hours like I've said... <center><a href="https://imgflip.com/i/255xhn"><img src="https://i.imgflip.com/255xhn.jpg" title="made at imgflip.com"/></a></center><center>[Source](https://imgflip.com/i/255xhn)</center>  ## <center>Couldn't Remember Much Again...</center> <b> So, just like yesterday, I couldn't remember much... I wonder why is this happening, because before I started this journey, I would remember my dreams, not very vividly, but still remember. **Now, for a few nights I can barely remember anything...** On my first day of doing this, I had really vivid dreams, so I was hoping that this will continue. Well, I'm pretty sure this will soon change. Results simply have to come if I consistently do this every day! **Today, I was dreaming that I was at my cousin's place and there was a party.** *That's the only thing that I can clearly remember...* I was talking to a lady, I don't remember the whole conversation, but I think she was talking about how bad it is to NOT eat food for several days... And I was explaining to her what [fasting](https://www.dietdoctor.com/fasting-affects-physiology-hormones) is and how it can actually be beneficial to your body if done right. She, didn't want to believe what I was saying at first, but I continued dropping some good arguments and she finally agreed that it all makes sense. *Haha, take that dream lady!* **And I couldn't remember anything else...** <center><a href="https://imgflip.com/i/25695u"><img src="https://i.imgflip.com/25695u.jpg" title="made at imgflip.com"/></a></center><center>[Source](https://imgflip.com/i/25695u)</center>  ## <center>Some Dream interpretations</center> <b> **I never normally did this before, but I think it's going to be fun to check out what my dreams mean, since I'm getting more involved with them. I don't necessarily believe the interpretations, but it's a great way to get even more immersed into the dream world.** So, I was dreaming about a party. But this party was more of a family gathering so I searched what could it possibly mean, and here's what I've found: >The family gathering seen in a dream indicates your overall well-being in life. It is a lovely dream to have and can suggest that despite your recent difficulties in life you won’t distance yourself or your family. [(Source)](https://www.auntyflo.com/dream-dictionary/party) Overall well-being in life! I must say, I feel really good about my life at the current moment and I enjoy all the daily activities I get to do. Every day seems more and more exciting than the last one! Next, I had an argument with a lady about fasting. What could it possibly mean? Here's what I found: >An argument can signify unresolved feelings that are being encountered in waking life. This is generally in connection with a close relationship. If a known individual is featured in your dream it can indicate that you need a form of aspiration to combat negative feelings. [(Source)](https://www.auntyflo.com/dream-dictionary/argument) Maybe I do need to combat some negative feelings, but I've always been good at this! I never let negativity get to me, just sometimes I start thinking negative thoughts for a few days, but I don't let that continue for too long. So, for today, I'll stop with the interpretations and end this post. At the end of each post I'll include my first post (down below) about this journey as it explains why and how I'm doing this!

Is it basketball that you want to become better at? You can do that! > >**Do you want to become a better fucker?** Nobody is holding you back! Just make a nasty slut appear in front of you and do whatever you want with her! > >Apparently while sleeping, the neural pathways engaged in the activity are strengthened, and not only imagined or visualized. > >To achieve lucid dreaming, a lot of action has to be taken. Well... Some find it really easy to lucid dream, but most have to achieve it the hard way. > >It's really important to think about lucid dreaming throughout the day. This way you're telling your subconscious mind that this is what you're focusing on and what you want, thus it gives you the access to control the dream world. > >There are quite a few things I will be doing in order to achieve this goal! > >1. **So, first of all, I will be posting my whole lucid dreaming journey here on Steemit every day.** > >2. **I will be writing down all of my dreams on a journal. A dream journal is basically essential if you want to achieve lucid dreaming.** > >3. **I will do at least 30-50 reality checks every day.** > >4. **Have a sleeping rhythm.** That means I will be going to sleep at the same time every night. I'll also wake up at the same time every morning as well. > >5. **I will also experiment with some techniques to induce lucid dreams.** > >6. **I won't look at any screens (computer, TV or even phone) 30-60 minutes before bed, because I've read that this helps a lot.** For those 30-60 minutes I will be meditating. > >7. **Talk, read and think about lucid dreaming constantly.** > >8. **Occasionally I will listen to lucid dreaming binaural beats and hypnosis.** > >9. **I will use an app called [Awoken](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lucid_dreaming.awoken&hl).** This app is designed to help you achieve lucid dreaming. It reminds you to do reality checks throughout the day and it has a dream journal, which is where I will be writing down all my dreams when I wake up. > >10. **I will experiment with the supplement called [Dream Leaf](http://luciddreamleaf.com/#oid=79838_3274), I already ordered it and I will use it when it arrives.** I will take it only once or at most twice every week to see if it changes anything about my dreams and the ability to become lucid. > ><center></center><center>[Source](https://pixabay.com/en/fantasy-eyes-forest-aesthetic-face-2824304/)</center>  ## <center>Tracking All My Progress!</center> <b> >So, like I've mentioned before, I will be tracking all my progress and I'll be posting about it every day here on Steemit. > >Also, after I achieve lucid dreaming, I won't stop posting about my experiences for some time still. > >When I achieve my goal, I will be writing down a lot of experiences that I have inside the dream world, and I'll experiment if it's actually possible to improve real life skills while sleeping. > >I set a personal goal to achieve lucid dreaming within 30 days starting today.
