Lucid Dreaming | Is this correct self awareness?

I've been trying to keep self awareness as simple as I possibly can. Anyways, here's what I came up with. Please let me know if you think it'll be effective in providing frequent lucids if I stay consistent with it and dream journaling.

Awareness practice: Constantly, throughout the day, non stop, I try and remain in the moment by just paying constant attention to everything I am doing and my surroundings as I go throughout my day. While doing this, I keep the idea in mind that I could be dreaming at any given moment. This keeps a part of me aware, and another part of me skeptical to my reality at the same time. If I find myself unaware, I gently bring my attention back to what I'm doing and to the fact that I could be dreaming, as well as my surroundings. I just try to make it my goal to stay off auto pilot and just pay attention to myself all day and my surroundings. Paying attention to myself eating, watching a TV show, brushing my teeth, and while doing all this I am aware of the fact that I very well may be dreaming. My idea is that if I practice this every day, this mindset will bleed over into my dreams and start to grant lucidity. I'm thinking that once this mindset bleeds over into my dreams, it'll be very obvious that I'm dreaming since dreaming feels different from being awake, things may not make sense, and weird shit just may be happening lol. The idea is that if I stay consistent with becoming lucid in waking life, I'll start to naturally become lucid more and more in dreams as this mindset starts to bleed over more and more.

Is this effective awareness? I'd like to keep it this simple and not have to add in other things lol. This works well for me but I just want to know if it'll be effective for dilds. I don't want to spend so much time on it every day if I'm not being aware correctly. Also I won't be doing any reality checks. I figure that since reality checks only work to increase awareness when you do them, I may as well just be aware all together. Only time I'll be reality checking is when I suspect I'm dreaming or already know I'm dreaming and just want to make sure lol. I'm trying to keep awareness as stress free as possible so I'd like to keep it to me just going throughout my day paying attention to what I'm doing and my surroundings, and being aware that I could be dreaming at any moment. Just staying off auto pilot as much as I can throughout the day.
