A very wonderful question. You have already received very nice answers from exhalted devotees but still woul like to mention whatever little I know.
Among Krishna's all the devotees, the gopis (cowherd girls) relish the highest and most perfect devotional service in KC. The gopis have set the standard of devotion for the whole world. One who follows in the footsteps of the gopis by constantly thinking of Krishna can attain the highest perfectional stage of spiritual-life. The gopis were born not of any highly cultured family but of cowherd men, yet they developed the highest love of Krishna. They are constantly engage in thinking of the Supreme and are devoid of any desire other than love for Krishna
But being in this turbulent world, how to remain KC? Simply by chanting as perviously mentioned by Maral mataji and rahul prabhu.
Srila Prabhupada says " The highest perfection of Krishna consciousness is renunciation of the material conception of life." Caution that must be exercised when dealing with matters of sense control, and in the potency of undivided devotional service to transform the seeds of material desire into the liberating force of selfless desire, ie. the desire for uninterrupted service to Krishna. The regulative principles are infallible in meting out justice. They are not to be neglected, minimized, adjusted, compromised, etc; committing such a mistake will block our spiritual progress for some time. Conversely, the regulative principles promote the quality of goodness, which helps protect us from contact with the passionate mode, which ALWAYS results in suffering.
And finaly, you must have faith in devotional service. To attain pure love for Krishna is not very easy but also is not impossible. Maya always tries to distract us but faith in Krishna and Srila prabhupada can save us. I suggest, please read books of Prabhupada for more knowledge. Wish you luck! Haribol

Your servant
HOLY NAMES HOLY NAMES HOLY NAMES, Prabhuji!
EVERYTHING is in Holy Names. Our svarupa, spiritual world, Krishna, Radha, ....Devotees....everything is in the Holy Names.
Because of that it is very important to chant our japa attentively. Our Japa should be our life and soul. Our air and goal.
And all other things will follow.
Your servant,
