I think there's a relation between this difficult to exert certain dream-powers in dreamscapes which seem to be too real because of they are representing some places from my waking life, specially when I become lucid during a FA.
For me, after stabilizing the dream, before I try to use any power without loosing control, I must first, break the chains which are telling me that's my real world. The easy way I found is by start flying after a long jump.
most of my dreams take place in a real world location and i've never had a problem with exerting control. dreaming is a very pesonel thing and everyone differs though. as i frequently say, practice will inevitably make perfect, so eventually, you should be able to have near complete control without many problems. that said, dont neglect stabilization.
that's what I recently saw, before I realized this flying thing it was very hard to gain control over those dreams, but I could say it has become easier after that. Perhaps at the beginning one must work on the way one perceives reality and dreams, then could start trying more advanced skills.
that's exactly right. keep on trying and it will inevitably happen.
