    But I've started using the pomodoro method and trying to just see studying as time put in towards a goal and see that as a success instead of feeling like I need to understand everything right away and preform.

I've heard about the Pomodoro before. I might try it out with something like this. It sounds like a good idea, but if I focus too much on time I'd be afraid it would distract from actually learning. I've found that it is very easy to fool yourself when it comes to learning, that glossing over something for thirty minutes feels like accomplishing a lot. Make sure that you keep challenging yourself in those thirty minutes!
