According to my Dream Journal, after my first lucid dream, I started to have them every 4-8 days or so. This was about five years ago, so it's a bit outdated, I got pretty crazy about it when I was in middle school xD. I think it comes down to the right mind set for lucid dreaming, always questioning your reality.
I don't know if this will help my awareness in dreams, but I'm doing my senior project on Buddhism, and a large part of it is enlightenment, and thus I'm starting to not daydream about the past or future, but rather keep my mind focused on the present, being aware of what I'm doing for the majority of the day. This and meditation, I hope, will make it easier to notice when I'm dreaming.
I would do techniques like DEILD, Dream Exit Induced Lucid Dream, but the only time I've been able to do those is when I was already in a lucid dream and was aware of myself waking up, so I got prepared and didn't move when I woke. But I'm too lazy, unfortunately, and not writing my dreams down and going back to sleep bothers me a lot sometimes. If I don't write a dream down today, I might not remember any dreams tomorrow, that's how my dream recall works, anyways, very inconsistent.
