probably you can help yourself (and emacs as a by-product)
best by realizing that you already are a specialist (at something
outside of emacs).  as you apply your specialty to improving emacs,
you will most likely find yourself becoming a generalist, and the
tool for that transformation, emacs lisp.

wrt hacking emacs to impress a third party, i can suggest you
play w/ M-x zone -- its performance can be improved in addition
to its depth and range of esthetic expression.  moreover, the
results can be appreciated by non-programmer emacs users.

in my case:

 acquaintance -> zone.el hacking / courtship -> marriage

(a bit simplified, you understand... ;-)

good luck in your search!
