Any tips besides just practice, for someone who really wants to get into drawing but beats themself up for not being good right away :)
(Answering publicly, in case other people might be curious too. Otherwise, let me know so I can remove this)
Probably draw from life and be inspired by life around you. There is no “right way” in being good or in drawing or anything related to creativity--that’s why we’re told to “think outside the box”. A lot of contemporary artists were told to stick in a certain mold and that’s what they didn’t do.
Don’t be too hard on yourself. Constant diligence will pay off. Draw whenever you can. Don’t even stick to drawing, do sculpting if you feel like it, heck, take up crochet.
TL;DR Don’t limit yourself. :*
