You're correct that I'm in a comfort zone. I can read about why these tools are useful. At the same time, these are tools that solve problems I don't have. How can one practice them like that? My mind is blocked here, I'm unable to come up with situations even "for learning purposes", for side projects, scenarios that would let me understand them better. I have difficulty coming up with new problem scenarios in my head, unless they resemble something I already encountered in the past. I will have to overcome this, if I were to become a better engineer. Without having a problem scenario, there's no work to be done. So there's only the job hunt right now. |

If you're applying for jobs in companies, and those companies want you to have skills in tools x, y, z, then they have a need and they have problem scenarios that will be relevant to those tools.
You can read company blogs - go look at any of the big tech company engineering blogs and they'll go into a lot of depth on the problems they have and how they go about using modern tooling to solve those problems.
The information is out there, if you don't have any ideas, then talk to ChatGPT , read company blogs, buy a book, do a course, put a question into google.
There has never been an easier time to get an answer to a question - you just need to ask it in the first place.
Your job relies on you being a problem solver. Start by solving your own problem, stop with the excuses.
