I'm assuming you're going for a DILD. In that case, you pretty much have the basics down. Be consistent with your reality checks, dream journal, etc. There are a few techniques though that many have found helpful in guiding them towards their first lucid dream. The most popular technique is known as ADA in which you can find a tutorial for here:

This technique has surely helped me a lot in regards to my lucidity, as well as increasing the vividness of my dreams. I totally recommend this technique to any beginner starting to learn how to lucid dream.
