How to get good at identifying and solving greedy problems?

Hello, I have a very hard time in identifying greedy problems. Even if I identify them, I struggle while solving them. Yes, if its a straight forward question like a few interval questions, I'm able to solve them. Sometimes, I solve a medium problem without even realizing it's a greedy question.

But some problems make me question my life choices! So, how do you guys do it? I really want to get good at it. So please help!
