I don't see why it should be a problem; as long as you're doing the practice then whether your feel or not the same motivation as before is irrelevant to your success in lucid dreaming. Many people who start out put much emphasis on motivation, and they expect instant success with just a few nights of practice. When that doesn't happen, they tend to depress themselves and believe lucid dreaming can't be done, then they don't do anything else to continue practicing. The emphasis should be in action, not whether you feel or not feel the emotional lift to do something. That many people achieve lucidity very early in their practice, yes; that many others take much longer to achieve it, that's also true as well. But, whether you achieve lucidity early or later in time should not be something to worry about. It's people who worry about these things that tend to take longer to achieve success in lucid dreaming. So, relax, enjoy the journey; I guarantee you, as long as you keep doing your practice, doing what works, then you'll have 100% probabilities of achieving your much desired lucid dreams.
About your practice, Have you included WBTB to your routine? Also, maintaining lucid awareness during the day is of much help for acquiring awareness during our dreams. As for the RCs, I have nothing to say about them because I don't use them. I find them irrelevant being that whenever I become lucid in a dream it's almost obvious to me that I'm aware the experience is a dream. So, it defeats the purpose of using a reality check to confirm I am dreaming when I already know that I'm dreaming just from becoming aware of the situation. Though, if RCs are helping you become more aware of your surroundings then by all means continue using them as that is helpful. I just focus more on cultivating a habit of all day awareness when awake, than on a specific action or object to reality check.
Hope this helps.
