Practice, refine, practice, refine...etc.

Seriously, you won't be good at anything right out of the gate usually, so set a schedule and commit to practicing often and consistently. Like lifting weights, the more you do it the bigger you'll get, generally. Take a break and you may be set back a little bit but still ahead from where you started.

Discipline will be your strongest asset here. Motivation will leave someday, but discipline will not as easily.

Learn to draw from real life, first. Learn perspective, draw from references (NOT stylized ones when beginning, just real life). From there, keep learning how things rotate, flex, twist, and move in the world. Your own style will come out of that.
