is it easier after the first few times?

is it easier to project conciously after the first few projection
say after 5 would you notice a difference

Its not necessarily easier, in some ways knowing that it can be achieved removes the doubt barriers, but that doesn't stop other aspects of your life interfering and you really have to stay on the ball.  One thing that can interfere is knowing you've done it before and then getting frustrated trying to force a projection knowing you can do it, which is a trap I've fallen into before.

Yeah it gets easier, or more frequent anyways.  i think its good to mix up your exit techs a bit because the first 5 or 6 times are pretty rough on the way out. Getting into trance certainly is easier. But the exit tech you use might need a little "refining" as it were. You will see that though. Finding the exit tech thats right for you is important.(I sound like an insurance commercial for OBE)! Anyways good luck

Sam's right,you have to "stay on the ball"!! And don't force it!!

I don't necessarily say that it becomes easier.  In fact, you may make the argument that it can become HARDER, because now you start to think that it should just happen the same way it did before.

From my experience, there is no magic combonation to trigger a projection.  On the contrary, it's more like learning how to control and fly a kite in the wind.  Some days, you may have to run in order to keep it in the air....other days, you may have to "read the wind" to see what's the best way to fly the kite.

OBE's are the same way.  Some days, your thoughts and internal dialog's will be leading you in a different direction, and you will have to compensate a certain way in order to get you closer to a projection.

However, with the more projections that you have, one thing that does remain consistent is that you may start to notice certain triggers or benchmarks that signal a projection is close by.  These are what you eventually learn to reproduce, and they become easier to notice as time goes on.
