This is definitely a problem! Having a large set of interests and problems to draw examples and intuition from are how I deal with it.
I suspect this is why so many mathematicians are also into physics.
100%! For those of us who need to learn from practical examples through to generalized intuition maths can be really really hard to learn depending on the source. Wish I was one of those people who finds it easier to learn from abstract first through to implementations second.
