Origen's On Prayer addresses just this question pretty well and is great.
It also has some bangers:
>Good is one; many arethe base. Truth is one; many are the false. True righteousness is one; many are the states
that act it as a part. God’s wisdom is one; many are the wisdoms of this age and of the rulers
of this age which come to nought. The word of God is one, but many are the words alien to
God.
You can find it free online easily. Some of the early stuff in the Philokalia by Evagrius and Saint Diadochus cover this well too IIRC. I am also a fan of the Cloud of Unknowing in this respect.
My mistake was to try to jump to quickly into contemplation. Praying what the more advanced have learned to pray is important. I think trying to keep the the Horologian, even if it's just small compline and abbreviated morning prayers is helpful. It is arduous at first, but the words become your own.
