There is no substitute for experience
Let me start with that.
There may be a reason why people do things the way they do in the way they do it.
“Can you teach me why you prefer to do things this way?”
You can always decide later if this is a technique you wish to adopt.
Certain techniques are appropriate in certain situations and not in others.
Try to find out why and you have another tool in your toolbox. You may not always use all of your tools but that doesn’t mean you should discard them.
