Yes, I have just enough experience with watercolor to know that it's not a medium beginners can have much control over (enough, actually, to appreciate how freaking talented really good watercolorists are--the amount of control some of them have is just insane!!!!).

And I do have a tendency, just in life, to want to be immediately good at something and quit if I'm not. But! I want to change that about myself, and keeping your excellent thoughts in mind will surely help with that!
