Lucid Dreaming | mantra affirmation - present or future?

Some say when repeating mantra affirmation it's better to use present tense than future tense: for example instead of

"I will recognize I am dreaming"

Instead of:

"Next time I am dreaming, I will recongize I am dreaming"


However when it's in future tense I think it has to do with prospective memory which is suppose to be very important for lucid dreaming, and present tense... I don't think it has anything to do with prospective memory?

Anyone have any opinions about that? (mostly the prospective memory deal)

Thanks!
