As the title hopefully suggests, this thread is devoted to tipping those with less talent on how to become elite artists.
Learn how to turn long-planned, time-consuming, and rough works into spontaneous, quick, and brilliant pieces of art!
Please post any advice you may have so it can be read and spread. ;D

My Advice:
1. Hang in there.
Never abandon a work unless it's needlessly consuming costly materials.
Stick with everything you can until the end so you can see all of your mistakes and watch out for them later.
2. Don't be afraid of failure.
A mistake is nothing but an opportunity for improvement. You can't get better unless you make mistakes, and you can't get worse unless you don't apply what you know.
3. Practice!
Make at least one piece of art every day. Practice allows you to see the mistakes you make while applying what you already know, opening the opportunity for improvement and eliminating the chance of your skills deteriorating.
4. Take your time.
Rushing yourself does nothing except hurt your art. While it is good to be able to work with speed, it will come with time.
Every artist should know that you can't rush perfection.
5. Stay where you want to be.
Your skill lies with your interests. This one may not apply as much after you become more talented, but start by practicing things that you like. It helps to keep you motivated and interested.
