Scales, scales, scales. And when you think you've done enough scales, do some more.

Arrange the scales in the following order (going around the cycle of 4ths):

C - F - Bb - Eb - Ab - Db - Gb (F#) - B - E - A - D - G - back to C

I know that everybody swears by the Cycle of 5ths, but Western music resolves functionally in 4ths, and this arrangement of scales SOUNDS more musical.
