Nah, I have another one: Being confronted with my own stupidity and my own limits in mental capacity. The shocking thing is that this never goes away, even after decades of practice.

As long as you are making progress it does not matter how small each quantum is or how slow. Concepts like "smart"/"stupid" etc. are relative (assuming there are no obvious biological causes) and are applicable only in specific domains. Each person can be associated with a "Radar Chart" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_chart https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_chart) of domain expertises (one spoke per domain) where it can be seen that one is naturally "smarter"/"stupider" in some than others.
