Totally fair, but that's only the "deep end" for language learning right?
If you wanted to learn a specific programming language for example, build something as fast as possible, tell people about it, and expect to fail.
Most people will cheer you on, and everything you learn will be punctuated by random bursts of "wow, I got that working!". If it goes south (which it probably will) you were already mentally prepared for that. (A bit of self-deprecation humour helps there.) And people will STILL cheer you on. "Wow, you're a beginner, and just jumped in?"
