I'd suggest not to attempt to become proficient at Emacs for the sake of it, instead.
Use Emacs for whatever you need an editor for.
Ensure your workflow is good.
If you see some room for improvement, investigate packages/configuration.
If you need to scratch an itch, write your own commands/packages.
Once in a while you might like to play & explore areas you didn't dig into before but you don't have to. Have a nice workflow, get your work done - and leave it at that :)
