Congrats on your first solo and thanks for coming back and de-briefing us.
So after all we didn't waste completely all that time while posting in this thread
To me your story underlines that learning speed varies greatly during the pilot training.
All my friends at the club reported various levels of frustrations due to getting stuck at learning some of the tasks (most often the landing, sure enough) throughout their own course.
Yes, the solution is to "stick with it", but looking at the problem and try to crack it from various angles is also necessary.
Keep on going
