A worthwhile moment may already be part of today's routine. This short practice helps you choose one likely moment without arranging a new activity or adding another errand.

When it arrives, give it your attention if that is safe and practical. Afterward, name one concrete detail that made it worth noticing. If the day has been too hard, there is no need to force an answer.
