the way the world is going.

If you want to be a wedding photographer, or many other things for that matter, commit yourself to watch a month's worth of YouTube, 40 hours a week, and in a month your ready.

LOL! This made my day; a bit too late but it did!

I'm glad I could add some value to your day with my opinion!

Until you try it like I did you will never really know exactly what you can, or cannot, accomplish as a result of your time investment. Of course you need to be a person who knows how to learn through that medium in all fairness.

People learn in different ways which I accept.

Well, this is not what you said originally. You pretty much said that you must watch YouTube to learn something.

How sophisticated you need to be to "know how to learn through that medium" if you force yourself to use it?

I said "if" then "commit" and "you'll be ready".

Commit means "do".

Must means "had to".

You said "if you want to be a wedding photographer" … "commit yourself". It is a simple logics statement which implies that if you do not commit, you will not be a wedding photographer.

My apologies if you are a foreign speaker for my use of precise English.

Your English is fine, AFAICT but your logic is lacking.

You are not correct in your representation of the words I used for the meaning intended which is fine because you are entitled to be wrong or have whatever opinion you choose.

And your use of logic as it relates to the definitions of words and my statement does not work either. Logic means reasoning.

I reasoned "if" you want to be a wedding photographer "do" by watching YouTube. That is fine reasoning in that if you want something, do something. Very simple concept and well reasoned therefore logical.That was my reasoning as stated through my choice of the specific words I used.

I'll reiterate:

commit = do

must = had to

Words have meanings if you take the time to learn the English language but again if you are a foreign speaker you may not understand the nuances therefore which I totally understand your off the mark comments.

And as I think you cannot accept my words or reasoning this will be the last comments I make on this because I'm going steelhead fishing on the Nehalem River today and in general unless you pay my bills I don't care what you think essentially.

But thank you for you input and adding to the discussions on the forums!
