Hello from Denmark

Hi all,
I'm a 52 year old engineer living in Denmark. Some five or six years ago I watched the movie 'I Dream of Wires' and got interested in synthesizers. So I picked up a Keystation 88 and a lifetime on PGS.
Back then I struggled quite a bit and ended up abandoning the project. The usual excuses with work etc. But that big keyboard, in my office, kept nagging at me. So a month ago, I finally got back in the game and now I'm just blasting through the lessons.
A couple of things explains the change.
I have short fingers so I now play high on the keys, almost to the edge of the black keys. That trick have helped a lot. I now practice almost every day so things don't grow stale. And, I've decided to enjoy the journey instead of concentrating on the goal. That change in mindset have made everything so much easier.
I do this stuff on a current Mac where I also tinker with Logic Pro.
