The only way you can get good at system design is by actually designing and implementing a system in your current job. Trust me, I have been trying to learn this from books but it doesnt help at all. But since one year I have been working indepedently on a new project where I had to make a number of design decisions that helped me learn a lot. DDIA is very good resource but doesnt help you design big systems. Only your current work can help you there. So keep looking for new projects are your current job where you can lead a project on your own.
