To learn if you are missing any steps or techniques, look at "writing workflow" of other authors. Find a workflow that makes perfect sense to you, then add those steps to your workflow.
Plus, as Wildcard says, quantity is the best teacher. There is a story about a ceramics teacher who tried techniques on 2 different classes. He told one class they would be graded on the quality of their pieces. The other class would be graded on the quantity of their pieces. At the end of the semester, the quantity class produced better pieces that the quality class. A direct analogy that can apply to any field.
