Seeking Help with Islamic Practices

As-salamu alaykum, I'm struggling to find ease in simple Islamic practices like performing Salah, making du'a, and engaging in Dhikr. Honestly, it feels overwhelming and frustrating at times. For instance, completing the Evening Adhkar feels like a great hardship, but I know others seem to do it easily. The same goes for morning and nighttime Adhkar - it all feels too difficult. Even the 33 times Dhikr after prayer feels like a challenge. Fridays are particularly worrying for me because I struggle with the Sunnah acts and making du'a feels pressuring, like I have to keep going or do it before Maghrib time every day. I also find making du'a for others to be hard. I feel bad sharing this, but I hope someone can offer some guidance. With Ramadan approaching, I'm concerned about managing my Qur'an reading and other acts of worship without feeling so much hardship. I often delay my du'a and Dhikr because of these feelings. I hope someone can help me find a way to make these practices feel more manageable and spiritually rewarding.
