It's pretty easy actually. Just get drunk one night and bash your head against a wall few times. This will make you forget all the keyboard shortcuts and you're free to learn a new text editor.
Since learning VIM I have got (with no addition effort) better at learning keyboard shortcuts for all kinds of different apps I use. Vim (or Emacs etc.) literally makes you smarter.
I now use Ctrl-V or "+p depending in gViom depending on what mood I am in. Nice to have a choice.
