What is the current behavior?

My node is up and running but i don't really know how to interface with it. I have a few bitcoin in a hot wallet on my phone but don't get how to lock it up better or find it on ledger or move it some around and get it in my LND wallet..

LND Wallet- got as far as print mnemonic word list, then totally stumped. When I go to create wallet, up pops the terminal and I get even more confused as I don't have much experience on that. Here is the last try and output there:

ok so where am I supposed to go from here please?

I want to be able to view the ledger, open my LND wallet, move BTC in and out, open & close channels, send BTC over LND etc etc. I have read this tutorial over and over and feel pretty stupid not being able to sort this out yet.

Is there a good resource for ignorant beginners who want to adopt like me but aren't quite up to speed yet? Please let me know and thank you!!
