How does Ron's "Sunday schedule" reflect a serious attempt to follow God's loving command, "Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy"?

unnecessary work demands or for outward pleasures. Personal employments, hobbies, and recreations that are permissible on other days are not allowed on Sundays; we are to "remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy" - separated and dedicated to God.
Ron found that preparing a Sunday schedule each Saturday night helped him to look forward to and to regulate his Sunday. His normal "Sunday schedule" was similar to the following:
7:45: Personal devotions
Bible Reading - Psalm 103
Meditational Reading - J. C. Ryle's Daily Readings
10:30: Home
Devotions
Bible Reading - I Corinthians 14:1-15
Prayer
While everyone's personal, family, and church circumstances are different, how can the making of a personal schedule be helpful for one's Sunday observance?
