How to get better at Gaming

If you're serious about getting good at anything, the first step must be to ensure that you: Eat healthy, get plenty of sleep, exercise daily.

Don't neglect that side of your life. Your mind and body will be sharper, and you'll find most things are more fun, gaming included. There's solid science behind this. Make those things a habit, and you'll still have plenty of time for everything else.

From that point, it becomes about training and guided practice. Guided practice is especially important (i.e., setting goals that are just beyond your current reach, and then repeating the actions until you can achieve that goal easily) -- this style of guided practice is how you get good at anything.

If you're working as a group, and the group aspect is important, you'll need to develop at the same rate for the competitive element to remain fun.

If you consider gaming a mostly social activity, it should be fun regardless -- just enjoy spending time with your friends.
