I don't know if there'll be five things I always do, but here we go:
Check I have a card or two with space to take at least 50 photos.
Check I that I have a battery with enough juice for the amount of shots I'm taking.
Choose the lenses I'll take on any given day.
Choose the kind of photos I'll be taking given the available light and set my camera up accordingly.
The rest is fairly automatic and no different to shooting analogue. I don't bother with any specific image settings because if you shoot raw you can worry about all that when you get home.
The biggest issue I usually have is which/how many lenses, which bag, do I take a tripod or flash along ... all that kind of practical stuff.
