I will add that just because a certain process is simple, doesn't mean it's necessarily easy to do. A miter is one of the simplest forms of joinery. Making one such that the join is almost invisible in light colored woods is not the easiest task. Sanding is a simple task. Doing so that you leave a level surface and remove all previous sanding lines is not as easy as one would think at first.
Like anything, there's some skill-building involved. The more you do it, the better you get and the easier it gets. You also have to have faith in yourself that you will finish it, even though you don't have a clue how. It's like driving cross country. Yo can only see a mile or so of road ahead of you at a time, yet you can drive 3000 miles and get to the other side of the US. You trust the road signs and markers, make a few detours, get stuck in traffic, car breaks down, you get lost... and somehow, you still make it through, as long as you believe you will get there.
