Great question!
Learning how to color comic books. I was terrified, completely overwhelmed. But, as I started to do it piece by piece I gained both insight and experience. I began to notice ways in which I was improving. Also watching videos on the subject I began to feel 'lost' less and less.
This then allowed me to get into painting and start to express myself creatively in ways I probably never have. It really spurred me to start branching into things I was interested in, but felt I could never 'get' or 'do.'
Biggest Takeaway: No matter how large something is, you can always chop it down and take it piece by piece.
