About conscious decision making (volition) and ability to plan (or lack thereof) while having a lucid dream…
“Volition or will is the cognitive process by which an individual decides on and commits to a particular course of action.” –
“…Another study looking at people’s ability to make conscious decisions in waking life as well as during lucid and non-lucid dreams found a large degree of overlap between volitional abilities when we are awake and when we are having lucid dreams. However, the ability to plan was considerably worse in lucid dreams compared to wakefulness.” – The Conversation, January 7, 2016, Authors: Dan Denis and Giulia Poerio – http://theconversation.com/the-ability-to-control-dreams-may-help-us-unravel-the-mystery-of-consciousness-52394
