I have to remember it everytime I go out.

I used to do a variation off this drill when alone.
I got several magazines and randomly loaded up either a dummy or a single live round into each one. I then dumped the magazines into a pouch and grabbed one at random, loaded and racked the gun. I then pointed downrange and fired. I then would grab another magazine and click/bang - until I ran out of mags.
It's a great drill.
