I agree with Nina here, and I'd like to add that many times I've hit
a spot where it seems impossible to go on. This seems like part of
the learning pattern; sometimes it feels easy, and other times the
problems seem insurmountable. I guess the best thing to do when it
appears too difficult is just to take a break and come back to it
later.
