Don't give up!
Just turned 60 and went solo about 6 weeks ago. At one stage I thought I would never get there. I was flying circuits twice a week and nothing seemed to go right.
Eventually I asked myself why I was flying. The answer was for enjoyment. So I backed off and decided to only fly once a week and try to enjoy every minute of it. Even so progress seemed slow and then out of the blue my instructor sent me solo! I didn't think I was ready, he did. He was right.
I can only suggest relax and enjoy every expensive minute in the air, your moment will come.
