Writing in third person past? Any Tips?

I'm used to writing in first person past (and i've also tried first person present but didn't like it). Anyways, I'm writing a book and I realized that my book would go best with writing in third person past. I've never really written in 3rd person, but I want to try something new.

So do you guys have any tips to writing in 3rd person past?
