1. If you dont want to get replaced by AI you need to have higher artistic goals than mindlessly copying the current twitter accounts and trends. Be honest with yourself, is that really what you wanna draw?

2. Take inspiration from multiple places (especially real life), if you limit your inspiration to just one specific media/genre/format etc you will create nothing really that original no matter how much you try, once you do that you will realize how many shitty drawing habits you had because you were just that mentally limited

3. For the love of God, stop trying to reach perfection, stop trying to reach peak beauty, stop trying to reach the greatest skills. This is correlated to the first tip, if all you can do is how pretty you can make this floating character in a white background doing a mildly complex pose then you WILL be replaced by AI

4. If you are at /beg/ level delete the mental image you have in your head that drawing is about lines and linework, drawing is about shapes and constructions, you need to see things by their shape not by their lines

5. If you are at /int/ level and theres something you cant do and wish you could like color, backgrounds, perspective my advice is to literally just do it, do it right now, that might seem silly but I've seen so many people that have a decent amount of skills that refuse to start doing something simple like coloring just because they are fearful they might suck. If you don't want to suck, start to do it right now regardless of the outcome.

6. Again, if you are a /beg/ another advice i can give you is to >>>>>>>>>always<<<<<<<<< keep your old drawings, preferably on a notebook or similar where you can easily just go and see what you where doing 2 months ago, trust me, even when at the most shit ass levels you will notice the difference in skill
