how many hours a night are you sleeping?
most lucid dreams are going to happen later in the night, or early morning
our first dreams we have are usually random abstract nonsense. even the best lucid dreamers have trouble remembering these
the next dream is usually our brains going over daily garbage. so you'll dream about work, or school, or eating, or bathing, or something else mundane. its hard to get lucid in these dreams because were so involved with the daily activity. like, we think we NEED to be at work, or we NEED to eat some food, or so on and so on.
after you go through daily garbage, then your mind is more free. these dreams are the most vivid and surreal, making it easier for you to realize its a dream
if you're not getting enough sleep, you are waking up before you get to those more vivid dreams. if this is the case, sometimes just adding one extra hour of sleep can make all the difference
if you find a lot of your dreams are mundane, it means you're stressed. and you might be falling asleep still thinking about all the things that need to be done. in that case, you won't be lucid at all and your dreams will be boring. stress kills lucid dreaming and it can last for months!
if this is your case, as it is with so many - try some relaxation techniques before sleeping
