There are in two forms of meditation. Preparatory meditation and vedanta meditation. Most of us are experiencing preparatory meditation. This type of mediation requires constant attention to a mantra. Maaa Ommm is such a mantra.
The attention is given to the vibrations of the mantra itself rather then the breath. The breath being slowly replaced by the mantra.

The mind is like a recalcitrant child. It constantly will have temper tantrums . But just as we do not give up on the child so we do not give up on the mind. We keep at our practice until the mind no longer  wins at it's attempts to have us fail.

For incarnations the mind has been at the liberty to freely be attracted to any of its sense objects it has endlessly desired. This process of having the mind under control and being an instrument to focus on any subject or object we wish it to will take time to reorient the mind to what we want it to focus on and not on random thoughts that emerge and distract us from our meditation.
