I can relate to this and love how you worded it!
There's a steep learning curve with the crypto world, and it's hard to stay current with it, as it moves so fast.
Thankfully, it does start to get easier once you get the basics down and familiarize yourself with the landscape of the "new world" that you've been wandering around in (like a big video game but this one is real). It's been an intense effort, many hours, and some mistakes, to get myself up to speed, but I'm starting to take the wheel more, as my confidence grows.
I think what I've been feeling have been "growing pains" for my brain!
