Is it a gift?

[LennardF1989]

Hello all, I'm Lennard and just found out about this site, since I suddently thought I would like to control my dreams (Well, I can control them, but not when I want too... Let me explain later on). I'm quite good in remembering multiple dreams a night (sometimes I forget a few, and sometimes I just don't dream - really -). Once I realize I'm dreaming, I can do everything till someone wakes me up, think of: - Flying - Acting like Spiderman - Taking multiple bullets in the chest - Be eaten by monsters without dieing - Having sex (with everything on it...) I never actually tried spawning things, or recreating a scene, since I only get a 'get-in-control-dream' 4 or 5 times a month (and at such a moment, you just like to continue your dream without doing anything weird). I know my cues, like being naked at school, seeing people I haven't seen in millions of years, being somewhere I've never been. The only problem is, like I sad, that I only realize I'm dreaming 4 or 5 times month (and at the moment I do, I can do everything). Is there actually a good way to realize your dreaming, mostly that thought just comes sudden (after seeing a cue), but like last night, I had another dream, and even though you can remember the cues that were in, I didn't became Lucid.... Since it looks like I'm quite good in retaining control, retaining in sleep etc... I'm not good in actually starting realizing I'm dreaming in the middle of a dream. So my question after this long (but perhaps nice) story, how can I train myself to realize I'm dreaming quicker? or What do I have to do to start thinking on my own in dreams?
