It is very nice that You vowed to chant regularly one round! It is very nice!
Yes, when we chant we have to try to hear each and every word. If mind goes away then bring it back again. If it goes again then again we have to bring it again. Again and again.
It is the process.
By seeing our en devour Krishna will Himself control our mind. We are not able to control it ourselves.
Once there was a little bird who lost her eggs in the ocean. She requested the ocean to give back her eggs but the ocean did not reply back.
She shouted and cried for her kids but the ocean did not even move to help her.
Then she decided to dry up the huge ocean with her tiny mouth.
She made a hole near by the ocean and started to bring ocean water to the hole.
In this way to control our mind and achieve love for Krishna is like this tiny bird is trying to dry up the ocean with her mouth. It is impossible.
But even though with full determination she was trying to dry it up.
Seeing her determination Narada Muni informed Garuda about this. Garuda immediately came to the shore of the ocean and in a roaring voice to to the ocean to give back this bird's kids. Or else he would dry up it waters. Ocean hearing that roar immediately brought back her eggs.
In this way only when we show our endeavor Krishna will come and help us.
