I started using vim only recently, and when I was running through vimtutor, I was telling myself how I'd never be able to remember or understand what is w, W, B, E, {, dib, ci(, ma{{{yy`a"bddp (maybe there's a better one than this) or :%s/a/b/g.
After only a month or so of usage, I've come to use commands and sequences like this by heart. And when I read useful tips or watch screencasts, I'm just remembered how I've barely even scratched the surface of productivity with vim.
That's why I don't fear I won't be able to remember more and more new, complex commands. I think it will all come naturally, like the first ones I learned. The same should happen not only with me, but with you or anyone else who is dreadful of remembering increasingly complex workflows of commands with vim.
