Sometimes being excited ends the dream. When you first become lucid ground yourself in the dream. Use your senses. Stand in place and look around. Do a couple reality checks and then go do what you want. Sometimes it just happens. |

So I think I may have become lucid in 2 or so of my dreams last night, but as soon as I told myself it was a dream, I woke up. Am I doing something wrong? Should I be focusing harder or being more calm? What can I do to prevent this and maintain dream control? |

Since these are early lucids I wouldn't say you were doing anything wrong. My first few were extremely short and unsatisfying, length and control seems to naturally increase as you become lucid more and more often. |

Look around, feel something, do a RC and then do all the things you want to. |

All of your advice is very good and should be helpful once I make RC's a bigger part of my daily life, but my problem was that although I've developed pretty good dream recall, I wasn't even doing anything when I woke up, and I didn't have time to stabilize anything. It was kind of disappointing, but I guess them's the breaks! |
