It's ok Neal. Gears are just numbers. All you have to do is remember which number you're running in at any given moment.
And not to pull boners like driving around and around Atlanta for eight hours. No, I didn't do that, but heard the story of a trainee who did.
If you can count to 20, you've got it made. And you ya lucky bugga only need to count to 10 or so.

Shifting without the clutch is a skill that is self taught. Just don't try to do it going up a long hard climb where you gotta downshift to catch up with the lack of momentum in a hurry.
