How can I start with obtaining lucidity? I had a few lucid dreams in the past, but they were maybe a few minutes long at the most before i lost knowing I was in a dream :C
I heard counting your fingers is a good way to check if your a sleep or not, so I have been trying to make it a habit to look at my hands and count the fingers each time i leave/enter a room.

When doing those reality checks, make sure you take a moment to really question your reality. Why are you in the place you are now? How did you get there? What were you doing an hour ago? If you go through with those reality checks and not pay attention, then you will likely do the same in the dream and you won't get lucid.

Awareness is key. ;-)
