 If you want to walk closely with the Holy Spirit, you need to make sure you're doing these three things. First and foremost, you need to be in the Word daily. Jesus taught that the Holy Spirit would remind us of truth and reveal the truth, but how is the Holy Spirit supposed to remind you of a truth you haven't received, or reveal a truth when you're not in the Word? Next, you need to determine within your heart that you're going to make a daily commitment to prayer. Adjust whatever needs to be adjusted in your schedule. The Holy Spirit will give you the desire to pray. You must make the decision to pray. Finally, make sure that you're living clean. When a born-again believer makes a mistake, the Holy Spirit grieves within them. Progress, not perfection, is the key. Allow the Holy Spirit to make you a little more like Jesus today than you were yesterday.
