Hi Ashley, welcome to Dreamviews! 
When lucid dreaming, dream journals are rather important because they help you recall your dreams. If you don't have good recall, you might not remember your lucids as well as you'd like to, which is pretty frustrating. If you have naturally good recall though, at least a dream a night without keeping a DJ, you don't necessarily have to keep one.
Be sure to have a look at the Dreamviews Wiki, where all the site's information is compiled. There's also lucid dream induction tutorials and a list of the different abbreviations used on the site (in this post, I've used "DJ" which stands for dream journal). I have a tutorial of my own too, which is linked in my signature. Since you're just starting out, I'd recommend reading the DILD and WILD tutorials because they're considered the easiest techniques for beginners.
If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to PM me, another dream guide, or anyone else you think can help.
Good luck.
