My tip. Flying is procedural and gets ingrained with practice if you follow procedure rigourously.
Learn the numbers for your aircraft i.e. speeds and revs for the various phases of flight, learn the after take off checks and downwind and final checks and do them as early as you can so you stay ahead of the aircraft. One day you'll find yourself down wind sitting ready for the base turn and on final watching the ground approaching with everything where it should be and poised for the flare! That's very satisfying
