My advice would be to get a whole stack of easy leading mileage under your belt first before you go putting yourself in situations where you are likely to fall, particularly if on trad gear. Make sure your pro and rope work are fully sorted before you go ratcheting up the difficultly. Sure, trash yourself on top-rope on something harder from time to time (just for fun - and because you will learn and get stronger from that too, but I wouldn’t bother so much going through the motion of redpointing afterwards). At this stage lots of leading mileage will help you most in the long run (IMO).
