It is not lame 
It is great.
If I may offer some unsolicited advice, please join a climb thread to share your progress and learn together. It is one of the most effective ways to stick with WK and Japanese for long term success 
The below thread is a great place
There are other similar threads like Olympians, Let’s Durtle the scenic route, Snail team/family etc. you can pick one of them (if you haven’t already).
You will learn a lot of things which would have otherwise taken you a long time to figure out.
As for your confusion, it is normal to go through that phase I have found myself frustrated when I was in early stages, and trusting the SRS to do its job has worked wonders
My second piece of unsolicited advice- Go slow to go fast. Too many folks move fast and burn out resulting in dropping out or resetting to lower levels. It may be a good idea to move at a slower pace until you find your own rhythm and decide what pace suits you. (Never compare your pace with others. Move at your own pace)
Feel free to ignore my unsolicited advice if that doesn’t suit you Looking forward to seeing you here for a long time Lewby san 
Good luck on your journey
