I think that's a Rite of Passage. It'll be interesting to for you to look back at 40 and 50.

For about the next 4-5 years I tried to keep to the 'cutting edge'. I had to give up on that when I finally recognised that I just wasn't capable of learning enough, fast enough, to be able to stay on that 'cutting edge'. The field was growing too fast. There was just too much to take in. I picked a couple of areas, and concentrated on those, instead of spreading myself too thin on all of them.
