That sounds a lot like the 4 stages of competence[1].

Unconscious Incompetence: You don't know that you don't know. (I don't know how to drive a manual)

Conscious Incompetence: You know that you don't know, and start learning the skill. (I'm learning how to drive a manual)

Conscious Competence: Your skills have improved and you understand them, but there's a lot of manual work involved. (To drive a manual, you do step X, Y, and Z)

Unconscious Competence: The skill has been internalized and is automatic. (I know how to drive a manual without thinking about it)
