One of the simplest reverse engineering tricks I use daily is the fact that a lot of functions in a compile binary will be in the same (or reversed) order that they were in the original code.
If you find an encryption function, you usually don't need to keep reversing the code flow until you find the decryption function. The developer probably wrote them both at the same time, so they'll probably be adjacent in the code. If you know what a function does, there's a good chance the function directly above and below it are related, so will be easy to figure out.
