what lucidness means irl?

Hey there.
I’ve been reading this forum for a while.
I’m a natural lucid dreamer since i was a child.

Somebody told me that if you are lucid in your dreams that means you are very conscious in your real life.
Does this make any sense?
What do you say?

Lucidity is a lot easier to achieve when you are a lot more self-conscious, so this would make sense.

I agree. I have had LDs when i have worked harder at being more aware during the day… of whats going on around and inside of me (if that makes sense). Its something i find hard… when you try to be ‘in the moment’ so to speak, you realise how your mind is usually anywhere but! I think this is why people usually accept the strange things that happen during dreams without really thinking about them, and thus, becoming lucid.
