One way is to have a special time set aside to pray each day. Personally, I think that the morning, when they awaken, is the best. Then, they get the day started in the best feasible way. It is also important to pray often in the work of the day and night, at every opportunity.
This may sound foolish, but to stay on target and not let my mind drift in prayer, I come to the computer, go in to Word, and start my morning letter to God.
I am revealing this personal knowledge because I am desirous to give somebody reading this an idea. Perhaps you do this already, or perhaps your mind doesn't drift and you are of those focused individuals who can "stay on task" and keep your mind on what you require to do. If so, you are part of a special breed and I congratulate you honestly.
