If its not fun then you will not keep doing it....You are trying to learn a lot at one time...BTZS, using incident meter, handling a LF camera, choosing lenses, processing LF sheet film, etc....My best encouragement is that when you get really comfortable with the technical part of the learning curve then the real fun begins and the power and elegance of BTZS method will be evident...Keep things manageable and as simple as possible...maybe stick to one lens, one film, one developer,etc and keep good notes until that set up becomes second nature and move on from there...If you spent time with Fred Newman I'm sure you got an ear full  one of the nicest guys you'll meet...Oh, Make sure you print those negatives even if just by contact to see what's happening with your exposures and processing....
By all means have fun...
Best MIles
