I like that description a lot :) @Marc Hudgins: Frustration comes before a breakthrough! I'm glad you embraced it, it makes frustration a lot more 'enjoyable', knowing it's a necessary step for that breakthrough. And thanks for the word 'ineptitude', you've enriched my English ;) @Mark: I don't know how many times I gave up on the plateau, but it's a lot. But I realized that I often enjoyed the progress more than the activity I was learning. For stuff I really like to do and learn, plateau-ing is not an issue. @Jean: So true. Life is as much about the destination as it is about the path. @amypalko: That must be a great feeling, suddenly realizing that you made a quantum leap! I like that description a lot :)

It's a process I've been through many times, though far too often I gave up not long after I plateaued. Now I've learnt to enjoy the experience itself regardless of the speed of progress, and to continue to make the experience more challenging. Great entry Lodewijk.

I find that when I am in the early stages of a significant breakthrough in my abilities, I suffer from a nasty degree of ineptitude. Often my work actually drops below it's normal level of quality while I process and integrate new skills into my repertoire. It's frustrating ,but over the years I've come to embrace this temporary set-back as I know it means that better things are on their way.

After studying a topic for as long as I have, you do begin to experience the learning plateau. What makes it worth it, for me, is when you suddenly find that your understanding of that topic has taken a jump, one of those quantum leaps, where your research will never appear to you as it once did. And, like you say, it's at this point that you discover there is no plateau. Your learning is exponential. Thanks for such a great post!
