My approach of learning any language with "difficult syntax" is to treat those as language features rather than a burden.
It is the language bridging the coder to the complexity under the hood (the computer). This comes from Rust's nature of being a low-level PL, and it is really awesome to be able to abstract those minute details so that one can write Rust and "look, it's not that different from JavaScript"
Another analogy would be `gerund` in English. English has the `gerund` feature for its speakers to nounify a verb. Other languages don't have that, some even use the same symbols for both the verb and the noun form.
Both Rust's "difficult syntax" and English's gerund needs only one-time learning session. Once you're fluent on it the sentences come out on their own.
