I personally recommend WBTB, it is the biggest boost for awareness and recall. I do like 4 or 5 a night.

Learn to enjoy your non-lucid dreams and work on recall.

Eventually you'll love them so much you be in a dreamscape and you'll be thinking man this is a great non-lucid dream, I hope I remember it when I wake up.

Hey wait a minute....

(or a few seconds anyway)

Try doing numerous reality checks during the day. You'll eventually start doing them in dreams and become lucid. Looking at your hands is a good one because they often look messed up in dreams. Hope this helps!

Do or do not, there is no try

I did 5 reality checks this morning, all jump tests, of course I new I was dreaming, but I was intent on flying. Then again the dreamscape was hell bent of face planting me

I have been thinking of adding some music to a lucid dream, and I was planning on going with
"I get knocked down, but I get up again..."

It would have been appropriate

Honestly, quality reality checks are more important the a large quantity of reality checks. Don't do your reality checks mindlessly - really ask yourself if you're dreaming. Your reaction shouldn't be "I haven't done an RC in a while, let me do one" - it should be "I might be dreaming, let me do an RC to double check." RC's aren't something you check off a list when you do them, they're supposed to train you to really question whether or not you're dreaming. And that mindset copies over to your dreams a lot faster than the "habit" of mindlessly doing them.
