In a dream i had last night, i was in this group of people. Then, i lost them and they never came back for me. i thought about going lucid in this dream, but i was too focused on finding my group that it overpowered my idea of going lucid. A little while later after some searching, i woke up and said "SHIT! IM SO STUPID! i should've gone lucid when i had the chance!" I was so close to get a lucid dream.
That wouldn't have happened if you did a simple reality check :P
Make it a habit to do every time you think about lucid dreams. Better luck next time.
Don't let your experience put you off. Anything Lucid related is progress. Just keep on doing Reality Checks when something's not right, and keep on trying, you'll get it next time ;)
It happens to everyone, dont worry :D
It happened to me many times when I first started, just try to be more skeptical in reality and try to get excited when you RC don't do it just because you have to :)
