I've read many posts where someone goes lucid during a dream because they just happen to say to themselves: "this can't be real". Every dream I have, can't be real, why doesn't my subconcious ask itself if it's real or not? I do reality checks and review them before sleeping, I know my bigger dream signs, and have a desire to become lucid. I haven't found a workign technique so I can't even invoke a dreamstate to test much.
