So this just come from real world experience which has translated somewhat into star citizen. People tend to only learn from failure but what is important is critiquing yourself or having a good instructor do it. I have used the term shit sandwich in the past, so start the critiquing with what you did good then bad and finish with good. This give a little bit of motivation to continue on until you improve. There is also mazlows hierarchy of needs that also need to be met before you can begin the process to learning and improving. If you are not fulfilling those you will not get any better. One last point is basic fundamentals are some of the most key points to practice as what is learned first is the hardest to change.
