I keep having dreams where something happens that could easily give me that first lucid that I so deeply crave but I'm making up excuses for the oddities and I can't get past doing this.

Example: I recently found a tiny replica of the One Ring in my room and started wearing it often to see if I would start seeing it in my dreams. Well after two days of wearing it I did. The thing is, it only fits on my pinkie finger. So the other night I have a dream where I slide the ring onto my INDEX finger and I hesitate when I do this because I realize that it has never fit onto my index finger all the way before. I put it on and take it off a few times more to see why it suddenly fits now (this is good I suppose, that I'm at least questioning an illogical event?) and my mind made up the excuse that if I put it on fast enough it could easily slide onto a larger finger, yet that's impossible.

What should I be doing so that I stop making excuses for these impossible/illogical things? At first I thought maybe I need to logically question in real life when I see impossibilities occur but then I realized how stupid it was to think I'll question impossible things when they happen because if they're impossible, they won't happen. /facepalm/
