How do I move from praying 5 minutes a day to praying without ceasing?

I have a few tips on how to do this.

~ 1. Have a Daily Quiet Time. (Start off with 5 minutes a day and increase by 10 minutes per week until you are having a Daily Quiet Time of 1 to 3 hours per day/7 days per week.)
~ 2. Develop cues to help you pray:
Pray every time you look at a clock.
Pray every time you take a sip of something to drink.
Pray at a red light.
Pray when driving.
Pray as you brush your teeth and take a shower.
When you do dishes or laundry, pray.
~ 3. Memorize verses of the Bible. Any time you do this, you’re praying. Also, recite old memory verses.
