I dunno... I found actually solving problems in a functional way much harder than the syntax.

I've done enough functional-esque coding in ruby/python/js/java8 that I can generally figure out a functional solution to lots of problems. I have not actually attempted to build any real software with Haskell yet, however; I'm mostly at the toy-program stage.
