Thank you for the great answer! I definitely agree that you should allow more time for a completely foreign topic than something you are more familiar with. One thing I am terrible with, that you touch on here is that you can come back to things if you are on a deadline. In most cases where I am learning something completely new, I feel a need to build something quickly and to do it well. I am not sure where this feeling comes from, but in almost all cases these are side projects where the only real deadline is one that I set. Maybe I need to recognize that and allow myself more time, rather than pushing myself to learn/skip things in order to see some arbitrary result.
