There is the euphoria, the high when you make the decision and do it, followed by a period of intense frustration where nothing, but nothing goes right. Then you come to your senses and there follows a long period of learning and mastery before you finally come out at The Other Side, which becomes the new norm.
I am up to my eyebrows in frustration as I type this - on my trusty old PC, naturally, and expect I'll be playing the Double Agent for some time yet.
