Repeated slips in the spiritual path? || Acharya Prashant,on Nitnem Sahib (2019)

एह वसतु तजी नह जाई नित नित रखु उरि धारो ॥
Ėh vasaṯ ṯajī nah jāī niṯ niṯ rakẖ ur ḏẖāro.
This thing can never be forsaken; keep this always and forever in your mind.

Question: Pranaam Acharya Ji. I feel that sometimes there is a peaceful quality in the plain life, and the desire for Truth is naturally present. However, at some point the changing states of mind start affecting me very strongly. The desire to go with them, overpowers the desire to see clearly.
In Nitnem it is has been advised to always keep the name of God in mind. How can the petty mind learn to respect God as something more than just a temporary relief among all the worldly temptations?
