Ajahn Dhammasiha explains that 'attaining' samādhi is not just a questions of technique or sitting a lot. The crucial factor is the suspension of the 5 hindrances:

Sensual Desire

Ill Will/Aversion

Laziness/Sleepiness

Restlessness & Remorse

Doubt

We have to consistently work against these 5 hindrances, in our formal meditation as well as in daily life, to weaken them to such an extend that our heart can experience the rapture and bliss resulting from their abandonment.
