Pace yourself, and take it easy. At first, it is overwhelming, because when you listen to music, it's like hearing a conversation in a second language you're not very good at, but after a while, you'll start picking up more and more, you'll start hearing time sigs and tempos, then chord progressions, be able to name them, be able to pick up on the key, etcetera. It is a language, it takes a while to learn, but it is very doable.
