I usually thrive on structure when working on new projects, but I often hit a roadblock when I encounter something I don't fully understand. When this happens, I tend to dive deep into learning about the issue or new concepts related to it, which ends up halting my progress for much longer than I'd like. It frustrates me to only learn enough to keep my project moving because I know that more obstacles will likely crop up later. I want to maintain focused learning while also making progress on my project. Any advice on balancing these aspects?

It sounds like you need to weigh whether gaining deep knowledge or pushing your project to completion matters more to you. Honestly, there's no right answer here; it's a personal choice. If finishing the project is your priority, accept that you can't learn everything at once. Focus on just enough to move forward!
