Yeah it's not so much the RC, as it is the awareness you have when you RC. The way I see it is, the most commonly occuring things in dreams are things we have a lot of thoughts about during the day, or things we think with a lot of energy about (for instance a girl you might think about all day with a great emotion of desire, lust, or a great desire for that brand new ferrari or something) your dream is a lot more likely to manifest one of these than that packet of crisps you thought about before you went on your lunch break (shit example but you get my point)
So if you can make that - "ohh that was weird - *do an RC", into a bigger, more emotional "ohhh that was weird, HOLD ON, am i dreaming? well how would i know? well if i could lift this table up with my mind i am! ok that didnt work, what if i make a really gorgeous girl walk through the door right NOW. Ok didnt work - *RC* - that would have been so good if i was dreaming though, if i was lucid i would do this ----" and use your imagination to just imagine all the things you will do in your next lucid dream!

You want to try and put a big positive emotion behind it, because your so much more likely to have a dream about what you want that way, do you see?
