Lynne--2 thoughts:

We are all big picture learners.  We start big, then dip down and build up, then dip down and build up again--always in reference to the big picture.  This is normal.

An example: I have been  working on a tape from a conference, I have listened to it maybe 5  times, over two days, taking notes then typing them up.  I am now getting down to some of the meanings I missed at the beginning. 

The algorithm is mechanical, a convention, a tool.  However, look closely and you will see that it too starts out big, then the answer gets smaller and smaller, more details are filled in.
