Sparkley's advice seems very good to me. Really get your motivation going. Think about what you would like to do in your dreams: flying, time travel, sex. Also reading about it through books and internet will help to saturate your mind with the thought of it.

You know you can do it because you've done it before. Good Luck.

I really want to do it, i really want to have one, but my motivation doesn't go up
no matter what i do, and i wake up each day and i feel like my mind is already set
that i'm not dreaming i'm in real life

How consistent are you when practicing for lucid dreaming? Is it daily, on weekends, maybe three or four days a week? In relation to what you've been doing, did you tried changing practices or did you keep trying the same stuff over and over again for the past couple of years?

Also, what about stress? Have you been getting enough sleep time? Do you find yourself all day thinking about lucid dreaming and how you can achieve it so much that it might stress you out and become a hindrance to your progress?
