Actually, it's quite the contrary:  when you're learning, it's best to 
start from scratch anew everytime you learn something.  Leonardo Da 
Vinci used to sketch a lot, even more than completing works.

Ctrl+X to me was one of the most useful keycombos in Blender in the 
beginning.  I wouldn't even save anything (because nothing was worth 
it), just play around and start anew when anything got wrong or if I 
thought it was enough learning for a particular technique.

It's been changed to a -- perhaps saner -- Ctrl+N(ew) in 2.5 alpha.

F1 opens a previous file, F2 saves and ctrl+w writes current changes to 
the current file.  shift (or alt?) F1 lets you load objects and 
materials from a previous file into your current file.

hope you may have a fair ride...
