I've found it better to focus on what I want to accomplish, rather than how I do it. I've been learning PS for about three months now after having been a PSP user for many years. I get along okay when I think, "I need to select this part and blur it a bit". I go nuts when I try to zoom in and out with the scroll wheel, which is a hard habit to change.

I'm finding out that there's always a little more around the corner... not matter what I think of to try, PS can go the extra mile and do more than I thought it could.

And, joy of joys, no more trying to translate PS tutorials I find on the web into PSP.
