I suppose it'd be comparing me being in the dream to me watching the dream.
Controlling things other than yourself in a dream takes practice. Most people try flying as their first thing, which is where they control just themselves. Another is where poeple try to summon something, which would be controlling the dream and yourself. Try comparing it to playing a piano. It's easy to use just your right hand (yourself) and you then progressively get better, while later on you add in the left hand (Other things in your dream) and then get progressively better with that, and try to synch them together.
