I am learning a tonal language. Any tricks for remembering the tones of a new vocabulary (in a list)?

I am learning Cantonese. I have been pondering how I can remember the tones of new words. For some words I easily remember, but not for others. I need a method that will not add extra steps to remembering. For example, if I use a memory palace, if I am in the middle of a conversation, I will have to go into my memory palace, find the station, etc. That is too many steps. I need something that instantly helps me remember 😆

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts, thank you
