Hey everyone, I'm new to the forums and Lucid dreaming so expect this to be a newbie question.
Ive read about LDs from the home page on the site and I'm really determined to have LDs regularly! Nothing excites me more than having the freedom to do whatever i want lol. But aside from my wishes, Ive been keeping a dream journal and have a little over a week worth of dreams written down. Now ive read about finding dream signs but there's something I'm not understanding. When your dream sign shows up in your dream, how will you know thats your dream sign? In my weeks of dreams Ive written down Ive found that when i know I'm dreaming I'm always in a classroom. Ive been in a classroom in my dreams six nights in a row now and before my 4th night i told myself if I'm in a classroom then ill know I'm dreaming. Unfortunately every time I'm in that situation I seem to not realize it.
Is there anything that could help me realize my dream signs more? Do i need to literally tell myself "If I'm in a classroom then I'm dreaming" every minute so i remember?

Thank you.
