How to Lucid Dream -- Nice wikiHow page
mouser:
The most basic definition of lucid dreaming is "being aware you are dreaming while dreaming". Most lucid dreams are about things you want to happen. Although most people know they're lucid dreaming, you can change your dream to how you want it to be... You can control your dreams using the lucid dreaming methods that follow...

I once got shot in a dream and went down, thinking I was going to die. Then I realized I was dreaming, wasn't actually hurt, got up and finished robbing bank. It's never happened again.
Dreams (reality) = good.
Lucid dreams (alternate reality) = awesome!
Edvard:
I heard a guy on the radio once who said an easy way to get into LD was to ask yourself MANY times daily:
"Am I awake, or am I dreaming?"
The theory is that if you repeat that enough, the phrase would make it's way into your subconscious and subsequently your dreams.
Once you ask the question in your dream, you enter a lucid state.
He went so far as to sell tshirts with the phrase on it because of course people would comment on it and remind you of it.
Never worked for me BTW. :(
