All good advice above. What you also might try is a little armchair flying. Find a place at home where you won't be disturbed, put a chair in the middle of the room, sit in it and close your eyes. Pretend you're in an airplane, at the hold, ready for departure. Say your radio calls out loud, make all the motions with your hands to open the throttle, operate brakes, flaps, yoke, rudder, you name it. Although it may look silly to an outsider, this exercise ingrains the "flow" of what happens in the circuit in your brains. Plus, it's much cheaper than actual flying and you can "pause" or "fast forward" as you see fit.
