Have I risen at the sound of the bell and immediately turned my thoughts to God and to the subject of my meditation?
Have I prepared well the points of my meditation, and sincerely tried to make to make a good one; applying my memory, understanding, and will, and taking practical resolutions?
Did I hear Mass with reverence and receive Holy Communion with due preparation and thanksgiving?
Have I recited my prayers with attention and devotion, remembering that I was then praising God in the name of the whole mystical Body of Christ and in union with the saints and angels in heaven?
Have I applied myself seriously and constantly to my duties and occupations, with a right intention, seeing the dispositions of Providence in all circumstances of the day?
Have I avoided sensuality and selfishness in eating and drinking, and attended to the wants of my neighbor at table?
Have I been faithful in my devotions to the Sacred Heart, the Blessed Virgin, St. Joseph, my patrons and my guardian angel?
