Question Newbie here too

Hello, I have an 8" Skywatcher dob which I bought last year but due to circumstances havent used that much. I am back on deck now and hoping to learn as much as I can take in! Can someone advise me what the most popular eyepieces are for newcomers? I have 10,25 and 40mm Plossls but have no idea whether these are suitable for someone with no experience....

I dont want to waste money on something that is beyond my experience but also do not want something that is not sufficent. Is a 2X Barlow any benefit to me at my stage? I live in an area with very dark skies so I can appreciate how lucky I am and would love to be able to find my way around in time.Any advice on makes and types would be most appreciated.

Cheers,
