In my experience, you have to be very confident about it.
Here's what happened this morning. I woke up around 6 and attempted a WILD, which I have yet to do. After (STUPIDLY!) shaking out of it to check the time, I tried again but to no avail. So, I then said to myself, "Why don't I go with what worked for me before?" and did a MILD instead. I got lucid in the dream, quickly at that.
Sometime in the dream, I began to float up in the air, over the fence in the backyard. As I floated, little dogs from around the neighborhood started gathering around and started barking below me. I was getting ticked off by this, so I considered blasting them away but the dog lover in me wouldn't permit it even in a dream. I left them go but did float low enough for them to be within biting range. I didn't get bit, though.
I continued floating in the air, but moving. Kind of like flying slowly. I eventually reached a BEAUTIFUL city park and landed there. Lots of people and I even remember this nice bridge. I took a look around and told myself "God, I sure hope I don't..." and then suddenly everything faded. (Ever do that?)
When everything came back to light, I was in the backyard again and I thought I woke up. I had a false awakening. For some reason, though, I tried to float again but couldn't. I jumped high but fell down. I even crashed down into barbed wire going across the fence (luckily for me, it was wrapped in some kind of plastic!) before hitting the ground. I did a reality check, first by looking at my nose. It was still there, but I succeeded in breathing through my fingers next. But for some reason, I still doubted I was dreaming and didn't get to fly again.
Point: If you want to do something in your dreams, you have to believe you could. Try floating first. I have yet to do high speed flying but floating like a balloon somewhere was kinda fun.
