You often don't, sometimes he'll just surprise you with a ministry opportunity as you go about your day. When that happens, many Christians had no idea that God was setting something up beforehand.

How do I know if what I am doing is what God wants me to do at this time?
One thing to note is whether or not you are at peace. (Colossians 3:15). I was fixated on course of action, I had apparent signs that seemed to confirm my course, I had Bible verses and a visiting preacher seemed to be confirming it also. I had insomnia for 6 months, 2-3 hours of sleep each night. As soon as I gave up my "vision", I slept right through the night.

Mostly, God's will is right in front of us. Go to work, pay your bills, study, pray, fellowship and just live. Follow your intuition. If that is not clear, ask God to show you. If you are choosing God's will in preference to self will, if you are asking Him to lead you and guide you, He will. We can get in trouble when our own desires overrule God's will. Asking God to bless our own works is bad news - just ask Abraham how that works out.
