Flash your landing light a couple of times before engine start, if you are parked in an area without flood lighting.

Taxi with it on, unless pointing at somebody who also needs to see, including aircraft landing!

If sitting at the holding point, I also turn it off to lessen the distraction for landing aircraft (who get a bright flash as they fly by just before touch down.)
