Just a lot of practise, you'll have to learn to play with these
sequencers like real instruments. My tip for Live is not to bring to
much gear. You might lose track after some time with all those
patterns and knobs and that can be really $%@##%^#. (I know :-(

For now maybe you can do as me when working in the studio:
Just play around with some patterns on MM and MD and record it. After
that cut it into logical (Usable) pieces in Cubase, Logic, Ableton,
etc.. And play with it rearranging again in a larger fashion and throw
some vst's over it for accents, ambience, fx and maybe some extra
beats. You'll get very organic tracks this way and practise Live
sequencing at the same time.
