decide on a project,
choose a programming language or software to use,
research on stuff
or mindlessly tinker, do experiments, or program concepts

Get a job in retail or shoveling shit. You're not going to be a programmer.

A great place to start for programming is https://www.codecademy.com/

They've got alot of easy to understand tutorials and really basic projects that can get you started.

Also, do what they said above, download a program and learn it's language. Unity is great because you can learn c#, Unreal engine teaches you C++, and even RPGMaker can teach you the fundamentals of Ruby.

The biggest thing is not giving up. There's a certain ceiling that you're going to hit as you begin, and once you become confident in coding, and understand the logic behind it, there's nowhere but up for you.

Best of luck to you.
