That's great. What have you been doing to accompany the reality checks? Reality checks alone, from my experience, don't do much in the way of getting you lucid. Awareness is key, so each time you do a reality check make sure you're truly aware of your surroundings and really ask yourself, "Am I dreaming?" and come up with solid reasons why you aren't. I find it also helps to recall what I was doing 5 minutes ago, as in dreams, it's often not possible to recall what you previously did, or you'll recall that you went to sleep.

My dream call is decent. I don't remember my dreams from last night, but that could be because I only had 5 hours of sleep. For a few days last week I remembered almost everything about some of my dreams, though. I started my dream journal back i may, but gave up on it after like 15 entries. I restarted it last week. In my lucid dreams, I want to be able to practice sports or other things that I can get better at.

Thanks for the advice
