I tried twice, I keep failing... Because you feel like you were falling when the lucid dream was about to start. DX
From what I've read, you'll have to try far more than twice. It's an on-going effort. It takes most people around a month; some more, some less. But, from what I've read, it's well worth it.

Nope, but I've always wanted to try.
The best way to get into it is by writing down every detail you remember about the dream, so that it becomes easier to remember in the future.
Perhaps you could start by putting your dreams down here.
Ah, yes. Dream journals. I've been told that's a good way to start. I was actually going to buy myself a nice new notebook today to get a roll on that one.
