I did say literal - Trust fall...
As you lean/fall forwards, you trust the wheel to catch you. It takes that one moment to "click" in head and afterwards it's easy mode.
Now it's time to learn to ride backwards. (I learned everything needed in first two months myself.) Like sitting/braking, in case you need to brake very fast! (Your body position becomes like sitting and is back of the wheel - ass almost touching the ground!) Or duck down riding, to pick something from ground while riding.. Looking backwards while going forwards.. One legged riding.. Mounting with left/right feet, same for dismount.. Being available to do very tight turns.. (I personally like those very tight turns where you put feet on ground and can do 180 turn completely on spot around your feet that has been put on ground - while ridding, not stopping. Ofc at slower speeds, as you are ridding one legged that moment.)
