Is like Shaytan is stronger than me.but I don't want that..I want to be closer ane try to change that..
How could I do it?

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

1. Make dua
2. Recite Quran. Learn it, understand it, apply it.
3. Ask Allah to forgive your sins
4. No matter what happens, stay firm on the path towards Allah.

On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
Allah (mighty and sublime be He) said: Whosoever shows enmity to someone devoted to Me, I shall be at war with him. My servant draws not near to Me with anything more loved by Me than the religious duties I have enjoined upon him, and My servant continues to draw near to Me with supererogatory works so that I shall love him. When I love him I am his hearing with which he hears, his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which he strikes and his foot with which he walks. Were he to ask [something] of Me, I would surely give it to him, and were he to ask Me for refuge, I would surely grant him it. I do not hesitate about anything as much as I hesitate about [seizing] the soul of My faithful servant: he hates death and I hate hurting him. (Sahih Bukhari).

As said in the above, you can get closer to Allah by performing acts of worship that you are obliged to do, and you get even closer if you perform acts of worship that are not obligatory.

Allah already said in the Qur'an : O you who have believed, enter into Islam completely [and perfectly] and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy. (Al Baqarah 208)

Satan and his followers will always try to keep you away from practicing Islam, because that will keep you from Allah. It's never for your own good, it's always to lead you to your own demise.
Say a'udhu billahi minash shaytanirrajim, make dua that Allah will protect you, perform all acts of worship and increase them.
It's a continuous war, it can feel exhausting struggling to win battle after battle - but Allah does not fail His promise.

[Iblees] said, "My Lord, because You have put me in error, I will surely make [disobedience] attractive to them on earth, and I will mislead them all. Except Your chosen, (guided) slaves among them."
."

[ Allah ] said, "This is a path [of return] to Me [that is] straight. Indeed, My servants - no authority will you have over them, except those who follow you of the deviators. (Al Hijr 39 - 42)
