How can I have an Reality Check

In my dreams... if all my dreams are pretty much real life things... like in my mind things always have to have reality in them they cant be wild. Like last nite i told myself i was going to have a lucid dream, and then i feel asleep and right before i did i thought to myself look for signs... but then nothing was paricullary weird in my dream.. it seemed very real.. if this is making any sense which i hope it does.. but can anyone give me a tip with this?

So you are saying, your dreams are pretty much like everyday life...well sooner or later you are bound to have something "odd" pop up in your dreams..but having dreams that seem like everyday life, you can work with it in a way

here is how

Say you are having a dream..and you are outside your house..everything seems real..you dont notice you are dreaming....the next day you have another dream....your inside your house...*wait a minute* ive been here before..."Am i dreaming?"

so what i am trying to say is...find things or surroundings or something that you have been before in your dreams, pick out certain things in your dreams and try to remember them-as a Dream sign-or just normally, cuz if you can put it in your mind that --if i see this, or if i go here-you can trigger yourself to ask "Am i dreaming?" in your dream..therefore you will be Lucid

lately since ive been reading alot about LDing..in my dreams i would be talking about LDing--but i wouldn't become Lucid---damn it!----i mean its the main obviously thing and i still didnt catch it---put with practice--im sure i will--just like you--with practicing getting to know certain things that appear..

Let's say..you have 4 dreams in a row that one of your family members are in....tell yourself--any dreams i have with a family member in it--i will remember i am dreaming--or any of this, or any of that appears in my dream---i will remember i am Lucid

I wrote in my dream journal that "If i talk about Lucid Dreaming, in my dream, i will realize i am dreaming" just little side notes--same thing about my family members cuz my mom has been in alot of dreams....

almost like a pattern..try to find one, and maybe things will happen

i hope this helps

There's also the chance that not ALL your dreams are going to be life-like or very real...just dont give up and keep trying
