How do I make my dream more like a dream?

I mean y'know. Im starting to think if I do a reality check it'll just be like real life. My dreams are JUST like real life and two Lucid Dreams ago I was trapped inside this room with a wooden floor and I was banging my head on the floor and all sorts (this is a long time ago when I was about 6-7 I think) and it was just like real life, I knew it was a dream but I coudn't do anything dreamy and there was no dream characters. The one I had after that was even worse in the fact that I coudn't even wake myself up by blinking hard. Has anyone got any tips on making dreams a bit more dreamy, so I don't end up thinking it's the middle of the day and I think sitting in the Palatine Dinner Room is normal? I mean, yes that's a DreamSign but why didn't I know that? How do I make them more dreamy? Thanks if anyone can help me. :)

If you get lucid in a very mundane dream, I find a good idea is to look for a door and imagine a crazy abstract dream world on the other side. A bit of self believe(and a dash of luck) later, opening the door should take you there.

But, did you want to make your normal non-lucid dreams more dream like?

Kinda yeah, so I can get lucid easier y'know? Like, like for example, I havn't experienced this but my dreams are so manipulated by common life that I'd find running away from super strong people smashing my window whal being stuck to the ground with Uber-Mega-Glue real.
