Arthur, you are not unusual in the study regard. It seems like most of us start out by guessing and only when our guesses fail do we then refer to the Reference Manual. I think I had been using Chief Premier for over a year before I really started methodically studying the Reference Manual and defining all words and terms I came across that I was not sure of.
The most workable way to learn anything thoroughly is to study a paragraph or two (or watch a single video tutorial) and then open the software and practice what you studied until you too can confidently get the expected results yourself, usually in a simple test practice plan. You balance the theory (reading or watching) with applied, practical practice as they, together will increase your competence (ability to think with and create).
