What I've found to be helpful is practice (i know you don't want to hear that), doodling, and lots and lots of erasing. Plus looking at other peoples work to find how they did things is also helpful, but don't rely on that cause then your work will look like someone elses, not yours.
Love is only a feeling.
A feeling of security, a feeling of happiness, a feeling of lust, a feeling of belonging.
A feeling we need.
We may think we can live life without it, but a life without it would be boring, meaningless, and depressing.
Love controls us. Without love, we are nothing. With it, nothing else in the world matters
Love is only a feeling.
A feeling that makes life worth living or dying

Heres my tip of the day: start with the snout. Picture it in your head, then carefully trace it from your minds eye. Use a pencil.

i agree with both the above, im just starting out at trying to do it more myself, but beggining with the snout always seems natural, which makes it harder because recently i'm attempting to draw a little better by starting with the circles and lines ur supposed to  when character drawing

think ill go back to the original way i was

and with any artform, practice makes perfect!

even right now, if what you can do is nothing short of bad stick figures, keep at it, and it will evovle, and improve, if you do not give up
You may break my spirit, my heart, and my body, but you will never break my pride.

I started out as an anime artist, so I feel for ya. Just practice, practice, practice. If you can do normal drawings, use those as frames and slowly switch portions of the body into anthro body parts. That's how I started.
