It was big when I was going through art school. I thought it was a big heap of bullshit.

People think you go to art school and the teachers there teach you how to draw. It’s not a technical school, you’re not a pencil operator. The teachers teach you how to look at what you’re drawing and what you’ve drawn. You are responsible for teaching your hand how to draw. Draw often, draw everything, draw always.

I found fairly early in my art career that I didn’t really love drawing and didn’t really care that my drawings were a little crude. I found greater enjoyment in other artistic endeavors and so did them instead.

TL;DR draw more.
