Hare Krishna dear Devotees, please accept my humble obeisances! all glories to Srila Prabhupada!
Also i would do the next things:
since knowledge is very important in order to remove the ignorance we have to start reading Bhagavad Gita.
Then slowly Srimad Bhagavatam.
Then Nectar of Devotion.
And while performing other things we can listen lectures.
And make a diary and write prayers to Krishna to give to us chance to be with Devotees and render service to them. And Krishna some day will fulfill our desires.
at least for Festivals we have to go to the places like Mayapur and Vrindavan and associate with Devotees. Find friends and keep contact with them through e-mail.

PAMHO. AGTSP. Thank you for advice.
Once again, I am starting at step zero. Starting 4 rounds /day. By Krishna's Mercy I'll be able to sustain it.
Yes, I do a lot of internet, but it is so easy to be distracted into non-KC websites.
Start by chanting a fixed no of rounds of japa daily chanting loudly sothat you can concentrate well on the sound ,do the japa loud slow and hear it. follow the 4 regulative principles no Meat eating, No illicit sex ,no intoxication and no gambling .Recite Srila prabhupada pranati & panca-tattva maha mantra before each round , in case if your mind wanders get it back to concentration on sound by reciting pancatattva mahamantra once and continue chanting.Increase the no of rounds once you are comfortable and going well but never decrease your present no of rounds .
Sankirtana can be done whenever you go out on your vehicle sing the hare krishna mahamantra like on your bike this works well. Read Harinama chintamani book -written by bhati vinoda thakore for a guide on the holy name (Correct offenceless ,non-namabha practice) The most important step is sravanam of , listen to prabhupada lectures .Explore &hear the audios(with photos) & videos disclosures attentively .Always Pray to the lord to grant you devotional service unto him ,make Krishnas devotee life after life and give you krishna prema.

Thank you so much for your suggestions. Yes, I do 4 rounds a day for about a month now - though my life is chaotic. I will pray to Krishna to please help me.
