There's lots of things I'm doing in the daytime, I listed some of them (the rhythmic walking mantra for one), but I think it's safe to summarize everything with just "paying attention" (with the subtext of recognizing the dream state). It's easier to think of it that way, too, instead of trying to keep a long laundry list of things I "have to do" during the day to promote lucidity.
Just pay attention! Enjoy/have fun doing it!
