Then your weapon...
pen, pencil, pastels, paintbrush? Perhaps a mix of several application tools at once?
Fine-tip or broad bristle?
Do you pick from standard colors or can you mix your own?
Do you draw every last detail or just outlines? Do you shade using crosshatch or perhaps fill with a slightly different color? I grew fond of the graphite pencil light crosshatch and smudge technique...
Do you draw different things in different artstyles? An apple vs a command battle-cruiser starship/mech?
Do you emulate certain famous artists? Piccaso or Michelangelo?
Art deco or pointilism... or both?
Pick something and get good at just that and move on to the next thing until you're good at all the things.
Good luck.
Also:
Natural talent is little more than a myth, said either for encouragement or discouragement. Research has shown that there is a link between most professionals/child prodigies: practice. An absolutely insane amount of practice, starting from when they were children.
Now, admittedly, you likely won't be able to get better than someone that's been drawing since they were a child and never stopped. However, that doesn't mean you're going to be average after 10,000 hours of drawing.
Natural traits, however, can give you an edge in many cases (better memory can help in just about any field, for instance) but the majority of that skill still comes from practice; it's simply enhanced or made easier through these advantages.
In short: natural talent? myth. Natural traits, which help you gain those talents or which give you an advantage when coupled with enough practice? Real. The bulk of skill? Still comes from practice.
Of course, you shouldn't just be taking my word for it, so here are some links (assuming steam doesn't block them):

Not long ago, I couldn't draw a darn thing. Then, by accident, while constantly writing tech tutorials I learned digital art.
I learned very quickly that you do not bore people. It didn't matter how "smart" things were. If they got bored and clicked the page off nothing mattered- so the tutorials constantly needed more visuals. In time, they became an explosion of fun, color, pictures...
My art is now appearing on people's walls.
Hey OP, ignore this guy.
He's wrong.
Practice drawing things that you see in life.
Anyone who tells you "if you used a reference then you cheated" has no artistic talent and is jealous of people who do, so they make statements like that one to set you up for failure.
After-all, how are you supposed to draw something that you haven't learned what it looks like yet? And I mean really learned, you might have seen it before but until you've practiced drawing it from a reference several times, you won't be able to draw it from memory.
Some people are naturally talented due to things like having photographic memory but then some of them are self-taught or self-practiced.
As a little boy, I would set my stuffed animals on the bed and then draw them.
Basically I was doing still-lifes before they ever told us to start in school.
No one who spends 10k practicing something, in a meaningful way, is "just average".
...and it also only takes about 1000 hours to become proficient.
It's a ball & joint mechanism so it will spin in a perfect circle.
I heard that there was a guy who won the perfect circle drawing competition this way and the next year they amended the rules so that you couldn't use that method.
It's the next big artist's tool that would open up a world of creating art to people that otherwise didn't have the money, skill, or training to do so themselves.
Should be up to snuff in about 6-8 months.
4 hours a day and you'll only need 6 months.
Should be sketches of a variety of things in life because doodles [scribbles] won't help you improve.
If you can't find things in life, then find life objects in a 3D video game - they're closely modeled based off of the same stuff you should be seeking out in real life, and so they act as a decent substitute / shortcut.
Your life drawing instructor won't like that but you don't have to tell them and they won't ask.
It's a life-saver for your routine on stormy days.
I would work on contrast, blending, and proportion.
Probably tons of videos on YouTube.
Have you guys ever been on hikes where you pass the group people painting nature scenes. They almost invariably suck.
But they're happy.

Impressive. I like the way you went back and polished up the hair at the end. A beginner would have probably left it as is.
