The best way is just to never touch it. Leave iCloud on all the time and let it do its thing.

Second stop thinking that your data is in iCloud. It really isn’t. It is on your devices and iCloud is just syncing that data across your devices. So my MacBook is the keeper of that data. So if for some very odd and unusual reason you want to turn of syncing data you need to make sure that your primary device has master copy then you can turn of syncing. On all your devices.

Most iCloud data will ask you if you want to kelp the local copy before turning it off, so just make sure that device has all the updated data first.

Then should you smartly decided to reenable iCloud you start turning it back on from your primary device. It will sync up then you enable iCloud on your other devices. I have done this a few times switching between apple and google and I have never lost anything.
