1. When im lucid it only seems to last a couple of minutes, what can i do to keep myslef lucid aslong as possible?

2. when i become lucid, dream characters seem to constantly pester me distracting me from the plans that i intend to carry out and they wont go away, and my powers dream powers dont seem to work on them.

please feel free to give me any advice you can, it would help alot!

1. You can try stabilising! One very good tutorial if you haven't read it:

2. Well they won't go away because you want them to, but maybe you can focus on other things. Also, if your lucidity is high enough then you will *know* that you're in charge, it's your dream but also controlled by your expectations of how things will turn up. So, if you think you'll wake up, you will, either in reality or in false awakening.

, i already do stabilizing but usually only the once at the start of the dream, should i do it more frequently throughout the dream?

Yeah, you should constantly stabilise yourself.

Think of it this way: how does one get through a maths exam? They revise. Not once, not twice, but a lot. It's possible to get by without revising, but they have a much greater chance if they do.
