How to become very good at accounting & cash flow?

Hi guys,

When I model, I often get confused on where certain line items should go/certain adjustments should flow through the statements, and hence makes me slow as I look them up.

What are things I can do to improve o this please? Aside from building models on my own, should I read accounting books/accounting standard guidelines? Would really appreciate your recommendations!
