This will most likely be counter-productive. If you do end up seeing your phone and doing an RC in a dream with that attitude, you'll likely think the exact same thing, it won't work and the dream will just continue. If you feel like it's a chore, try setting the notifications to go off less often, or if you can remember on your own, just try and do them when you see a dream sign or something weird happens, like the other posters have been saying. IMO it's important to really question your surroundings, but it still doesn't have to take you much longer than 10-20 seconds.
