"Get close, then get closer still." - Don't remember who said it first (not me) but it's really good advice.
Take a lot of photos. A lot. Photograph everything in your home. Then things around your home. Annoy all the people in your life by taking pictures of them (but not too much). Read a lot of books and look at the works of other photographers in your local library. Flat out copy them, and then experiment with it.
All these things I'm still doing, and don't think I'll ever get to a point where I can say, 'right, I'm brilliant at this, now I can stop trying.'
Just my tuppence worth.
