It depends on what situations you wanna apply your analytical skill.

Trial and errors. One of the easiest ways to practice is following the news. Read any articles of your interest, do some research on that particular event and guess what it gonna happen because of that particular event. Compare yours with the "correct" answer the next day. Should you gave the wrong guess, read article that explains why it is so and ask yourself how to improve. Why couldn't you apply your analytical model in this case? Did you make certain false assumptions? Did you miss considering some aspects of the problem? Through the process, you will develop and perfect your own approach to analyze those kind of problems. I would recommend "The Economist" for this practice

Imitating the best. Try to analyze a problem with your friends. Find out how their analytical process work and learn from them.
