Ten Things that Bring the Love of Allah
Ibn al-Qayyim (rahimahullaah) said that there are ten things that bring the love of Allah:
Recitation of the Qur’an with reflection and with understanding of its meanings.
Seeking closeness to Allah by performing voluntary deeds after having performed obligatory ones, for that leads one to the highest levels of love.
Remembering Allah during every situation - with one’s time, heart, and deeds…One’s share of that love is to the degree of one’s share in that remembrance.
Preferring what He loves to what you love when your desires are strong.
Allowing your heart to reflect on His names and attributes.
Reflecting on His many favors and blessings, both the apparent ones and the hidden ones, for that leads to His love.
Having your heart softened as it is worshipping Allah.
Being alone with Him in worship when He descends during the last third of the night. And this means to invoke Him, to recite His speech, to stand with all sincerity, and with good manners and with good submission, and then to end that with repentance and with seeking His forgiveness.
Sitting with those who are truthful in their [fear] of Allah.
Staying away from all that creates barriers between the heart and Allah.
From: Gems and Jewels, p. 22/23

no one tells you how much of life takes practice. not just writing, painting, running, singing, etc, but practicing how to make friends. how to make the right ones. getting practiced at how to be a good friend, a good sibling, a good person. practice identifying when people haven’t earned that. learning to recognize your right to rage and, eventually, how to offer mercy. so much of life is muscle memory, and i’ve begun to realize there are so many more parts of ourselves to flex and stretch and strengthen than those we’re taught in anatomy lessons
