I'll give you an easy useful command: smart completion. In insert mode use <C-x> then <C-p> for a word or <C-l> for a line, or <C-f> for a directory path. You can repeat them because it is contextual. See `:h ins-completion`.

Also, get away from the arrow keys. And use <C-[> for escape. But it is also okay if you don't like vim. If you want to learn, there's a community out there and we're happy to help, but if you don't then that's okay too. You just do you and that's all cool :)
