May it be coding, writing or another skill, there is one thing that matters most when learning and perfecting it:

* practice

* observe how others do

* practice

* practice even more

Obviously, you won't be good at first, but that's the whole point of learning, isn't it?

So every time you encounter a defect in your skill, make a mental note for next time. Don't try to make it right the first time, just make it. That way, you will get feedback, and know what the actual defects are.
