Almost there I can feel it!

Hey everyone. This is my first time here. I wont go into to much detail about my life and experiences so far, but I have been attempting lucid dreaming for some time now with very limited success. I have always been very good at dream recall ever since I was a child. I love dreams, I find them fascinating and sometimes just take a nap just to have a dream. I can recall them in amazing detail, sometimes 2-3 a night. In my journey in learning how to lucid dream I have started keeping a dream journal and carrying out reality checks for some time. Using my journal I have managed to discover a dreamsign which is my moms house. I moved out of my moms house over 2 years ago now but when I dream I always seem to be back there in one way or another. I figured that this was my dreamsign and I go to sleep every night saying to myself that next time I dream and I am back home I will do a reality check..... But I never do. So far I have had maybe 3 lucid dreams. 1 of them I seemed to have full control and it was AMAZING! I could do anything and I was like a kid in a playground. another dream I managed to escape from a nightmare by becoming lucid and realising it was a dream. and the last one I had was recent I became lucid and floated out of my body and I was in my flat. I was walking around my flat but I was consious I was dreaming. Everything was hazy and I could not focus on anything. I remember walking to my bathroom and looking at myself in the mirror and trying to focus on my face but couldnt.... Anyway I digress, I am just looking for some guidance. I feel there is something in my dreams that I need to discover. Something is willing me to discover but I cant quite get there. If I am doing everything that is recommended, dream recall, dream journal, reality checks, identifying dream signs... WHat else am I missing? Thanks everyone.

Nice to hear you are getting so close. My advise is to practice All Day Awareness, it has helped me out big time! You will learn to discover that 'thing' you're looking for, because you will actually be looking for it inside your dream.
