Be devoted to prayer, keeping alert in it with thanksgiving.
Colossians 4:2 NET

I have little difficulty with quick short prayers, but I have great difficulties praying for a long time, especially alone. My mind tends to wander, so not "keeping alert" in it.
But, as Brant Hansen points out, even short prayers is better than no prayers, so we gotta keep at it even if we're not that great at it.

Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer everyone.

This is another verse that tells us the balance, like "Speak the truth in love" - too often we forget to be gracious in our "righteous indignation"...
