What was the moment you realized you finally got gud?

I just finished dark souls 3 for the second time, on NG+, and tried both DLC for the first time. On my first playthrough, I struggled A LOT with the final bosses of the base game, aka Dragonslayer Armour, Twin princes and Soul of cinder, but when i started NG+ everything felt so different, like I finally knew what I was doing, and beat those 3 bosses on my first try. Then i went over to the DLC, and the Ringed city specifically felt so easy to beat, I killed Midir on my first try and Gael on second try, but I almost took no damage in that fight. Seeing how bad i struggled earlier on, to now beating the final boss of the game with barely a scratch, is this the satisfaction everyone talks about when you realize you finally git gud?
