"How do I get to Carnegie Hall?" "Practice, man, practice!"
People have been complaining about bad software for a long time. If you want to get good at something, you have to practice it (with feedback). We want people to get good at design, and the best way is to design all the time, or as often as possible, with feedback from trying to use and modify the design. Ditto for "architecture", maintainable /readable code, and so on. (And people and project management skills? Practice can't hurt.)
