Gear Shifter or Paddles in manumatic

Does anyone else find it hard to use the paddles vs the gear shift lever in their manumatic? I've driven manuals in all my previous sports cars and I find it hard to adapt to the paddles vs moving the gear shift lever. With a manual, there's a huge timing component when charging hard into a corner; brake, down shift, heel/toe, match revs, and hit the apex. I find my timing completely off because I no longer have to use so much movement. In the end, I know it'll be faster from a timing perspective but I find myself always using the gear shift as opposed to the paddles. Anyone else have this issue or am I just the old dog that can't learn new tricks...
