Having trouble with coming up with ideas? Try Lucid Dreaming

I've always wanted to try this but I never actually got in the habit of doing these techniques. Until now. I can't remember the last time I had a dream, but ever since I started my dream journal, even when the first couple of nights I wrote down no dreams, I started to have dreams, and I wrote them down. The first process is complete. The next is to have my reality checks which I have had trouble with in the past. But just last night I felt awake the whole night, but I don't think I was asleep. I believe my body was going through the process that leads to lucid dreaming. So I think I'm on the right track so far.

When you start doing lucid dreaming you can expect to have more dreams, or remember them more easily, and even control them. For me, that is a great way to get ideas for stories, even if they're just random stories. But you never know, one of them could be turned into an epic. Like for me, I got the idea for Rise of the Dark Age from a dream I had the night before.

So will you master the ability to control your dreams?

Here's my dream journal so far. I hope you all who will do this share your own dream journals as well. Slash marks mean new dream on the same night.

Dream Journal

7/30/14: No dreams

7/31/14: No dreams

8/1/14: I was watching a star wars commando in first person view who was in a corner of a ship with droids coming at him/A library that had a bionicle creature that was alive, and human size, and we had to fight it/walking around a town with human Pinkie Pie, and met human or anthro Cheese Sandwhich in a bar. Unsure if this was connected to the last dream/ A water park where some fat guy and others going through this one ride that was like going through a spaceship; at the end we find ourselves in a room with large flat screen TV's up on the walls, and they talk about stuff/Watching a Total War like game that is playing a campaign of the Greek Persian war, except the countries are in the wrong places, and somehow part of Europe ended up being in the middle east, all while John Stewart is telling the news the whole time as background noise/Me at McDonalds taking a line, and someone ask for weird things like a sliver fappie, and then a car pulls up at second window and it's a truck that's so big you can only see the tires.
