I've been thinking about trying out lucid dreaming. Do you think it's not useful in general, or just in terms of becoming more rational?
Hmm, depends on what you mean by useful. I think lucid dreaming is:
a) very fun
b) useful for becoming more rational,, but only in a somewhat limited way-- it can be very good for training noticing confusion but doesn't seem to have a huge amount of potential beyond this.
By useful, I mean, can I use it to:
Practice a speech?
Deliberate about a decision with imagined famous people?
Get more comfortable around people of high status?
