Learning how to operate PS more efficiently and finding out the use of as much options as you can would give you more freedom and ease when working on a piece. The great thing about PS is that it has so much potential but a lot of people who use it stick to the same formula of sig-making over and over again. I would urge you to explore but with guidance and direction, which brings me to my next tip:

Learning the basics of composition and looking for different forms of artwork for reference would definitely help you out as well. Although I haven't been producing much lately, I still do some reading on the sideline and look at a couple of fresh new art pieces (paintings, photographs, sculptures, architecture, etc) almost daily.
