I am now a third grade undergraduate student. I do fair job in my studies. Now I have been in a theorectical condensed matter group in my university to learn how to do researches. But after a whole year, I still find that when I want to run into a topic, say Berry phase, or higgs mechanism, I always dig out endless materials. Sometimes I learn much. But in many case, I find myself lost in some "forbbidden" knowledge forrest and pay a lot of time but get to know nothing except some abstract terminologies. As this happens again and again, I feel really frustrated when facing something new. So I want to ask: Is doing research really that hard? Then how do physicists get into the field and seldomly feel bad? Thx a lot.
