(Proverbs 3:21 KJV) My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion:
How do we keep “sound wisdom” (8454) and “discretion” (4209) in front of us? The most obvious requirement is to decide to make it happen. The Holy Spirit will move. He will bring to mind what we need in a crisis but the implication here is that we are to organize our lives and direct our thinking in such a way to keep God and His ways in our minds.
One way to see this happen is to keep the written word open in front of you. Remember that Bibles don’t open themselves and they don’t follow you around the house begging to be read. You might program your radio to stay on a certain station, but again, that requires your conscious effort.
So? Put in the effort. The rewards are eternal.

I've been failing there a lot lately, myself.
I wish I could say I've got it down perfectly, but I don't. Grace is wonderful.
Grace and peace.
