Exactly.

I actually had a false lucid dream before a true lucid dream, so when I eventually had a true lucid it was an entirely different feeling. Very eye opening.

Lucidity is just means awareness, so there is not really such a thing as a false lucid dream. If you are aware you are dreaming, you are lucid. However, there are different levels of lucidity.

Think about your present waking life awareness. Are you aware of your physical pain? Body position? Urges? Thoughts? Emotions? Sounds? Smells?

You can be aware of just a few of these things, or all of them.

You really don't know what you are talking about, you never experienced a False Lucid Dream.

Last night, I had a dream that I was doing my reality checks! So yes I think aspiring lucid dreamers just have it on their mind a lot.
