Tjanko, welcome to the Hog.
I know you didn't ask for advice, but I will give you some anyway.
Becoming a professional doesn't neccessarily take a lot of years. It takes a short, intense period of study.
I suggest you find a college near you and enroll in photography course work. You will learn immensely from the 20 classmates around you, not to mention a well connected professional instructor. When you pop out the other end, you will emerge a confidant, ready to take on the world, Neo-Pro.
Again, welcome and good luck.

I do strictly nature for now. I am a very novice and just can't get enough.

If you enjoy nature feel free to check out my photo blog featuring birds and other wildlife including alligators. I update it daily.

Welcome Tjanko! I think if the truth were told, we're (almost) in the same boat. We each have specific interests in photography and 'take a lot of pictures'. I guess I'll let others decide if I'm a 'photographer' in their own mind, but it's what I think of me that counts most (to me). Believe in yourself and have fun snapping!

as a pro i must tell you,it's hard with skill-without it i don't know how you can manage. why don't you stay a happy amateur,enjoying what you do,trying to do better each time? then maybe one day you will you do have skills?

Welcome to both of y'all. Shoot and learn. I'm no pro, but being on on this forum made me smarter.
