Hi, welcome to DV!!!

Try doing RCs when you see a dream sign of yours in waking life, or when you happen to see something weird/strange. Then when you actually do the RC, make sure it is thorough, and use at least a couple of different RCs, just to make sure you're not really dreaming. That way its not just something automatic that you might end up overlooking in your dreams. When I do a RC, I usually do 3 of them: trying to fly, clock, and finger through hand.

Hope that helps. Good luck on your lucid journey!
