If you ever wonder why some of your fellow classmate or friends seem to improve faster than you,
there are logical factors that can help explain this. The following are a list of factors I will highlight
Time factor- This one is a no brainier. It s common sense that the more time you spent doing an activity the better you will be at it. But time spent without intensity and intention will get you only to a certain level.
Intensity factor- It s like building muscle for strength, the harder and more intense you push in each workout, the more result you will gained. One way to gauge your intensity level is if what you are doing is too easy, then maybe you need to increase your intensity level and push harder. If your not pulling your hair out, throwing your pencil on to the wall, and shouting in frustration at your monitor, then maybe you aren't challenging yourself enough.
Intention factor- Working with intention is like understanding what your weakness is and knowing which specific muscle to focus on to build stronger so you can hit the next level of performance.
For instance, if you are weak in drawing, maybe it is because of you lack the fundamental of perspective or a strong mental visual library or you have lack of control of how you lay down your lines. Whatever it is, you need to identify the culprit and intentionally work toward strengthing those weak areas.
Consistent factor- When Michael Jordan hit the game winning shot at the buzzer to beat the Utah Jazz for the Championship, he made it look so easy. But I bet that he practiced that shot a million billion time for him to decide that 's where he want to put that nail in the coffin. If you want to get better at concept design and improve at a rapid speed, you have emerge yourself fully into it. You have it live and dream in.
To be very good at a specific skill require a life time of dedication. At the beginning you have to do it consistently with intensity and intention if you want to improve your craft. You have to work hard and work smart and stay persistent.

Wow, that's really helpful! thanks mate. I was a bit depressed because, I didnt know what to do, to improve myself. Now I got loads of motivation to work on the stuff I'm really suffering with.
