First - buy a Macbook Pro
- learn theory basics, chords, chord progressions, scales, learn what key is a song you listen to,
- listen to songs and learn how to determine what key is a song,
- play along a songs you like, find chords and play along, practice finding chords of the song (and when you find a chord check what is the name of that chord),
practice and practice until you learn chords, practice until you will know in you head what chord is it what you hear.
- then after you do that, after you will easy play chords along the song, start playing variations, play in the key different chords and progressions and melodies.
Next step will be

- learn about song arrangement
- watch tutorials (sonic academy, groove3 etc)
Next step - Mixing
