Just remembered my first dream in a long time, will record here

I want to lucid dream, but i've been instructed that I need to remember my dreams first. I never remember my dreams, but last night I chanted to myself "I will remember my dreams" and wrote them down as soon as I woke up. Apparently I remembered 3 dreams! Looks like it works. Here's what I wrote.

1. "Hiding from Death Eaters"

You know, Harry Potter Death Eaters? I don't remember this dream AT ALL but that's what I wrote.

2. "Tomb Raider"

I remember a little of this, I wasn't controlling a body per se, it's like I was just watching Laura Croft from Tomb Raider do acrobatic moves.

3. "Working at fast food; confront my boss to see if he's dropping me in favor of another (employee)"

I remember a little of this too.

All my dreams were not vivid at all, I'm worried because other people here describe their dreams as almost lifelike vividness. I'll keep trying though. Any tips are appreciated.

Nothing to worry about, man! Just have fun! Awesome job remembering three dreams.

Yeah, they get more vivid as your recall gets better. It is like you go deeper. Right now you are just penetrating the surface where all the nonsense floats to, but as you get in touch with your subconscious more you get into the deeper more vivd shit like archetypes, faery tales, myths, etc... And it won't be long at all if you keep up the good work! Maybe only a week or two.
