For God’s sake don’t start with Heidegger. If you haven’t built up the lexicon of the field of phenomenology you’ll just get terribly frustrated and throw the book directly out the window. And it has nothing to do with intelligence, it’s just really dense stuff.
Start with some intro to phenomenology, then pick a writer whose summarized viewpoint resonates most with you, and then start reading that person, slowly.
