i think it all depends with what you feel . others enjoy experimenting on their own , some follow series of tutorials in video or book form . Other google codes for specific programs and study them . So its all up to you , on which is the best . But I suggest that if u are a newbie try video tutorials on youtube or use tutorials point books ...these you can google

I definitely agree with @Jeth. After completing the tutorial for the language of your choice try and write as much of your own code as possible. The more you practice naturally the better you become at something.
If you don't know what to code you could try this:
copy and paste one of the tutorial code examples, randomly change some variable values or delete some of the lines, and then try and make the code work again.
The goal isn't to try and make the program return the same answer, the goal is just to try and get the code to run after randomly breaking it. Then after messing with some code you will get an idea to start something small from scratch.
All ideas stem from previous ideas (whether it's consciously or subconsciously).

Best way to learn is to write your own code. It's like driving - you can read hundreds of books and watch hundreds of videos about driving but you only be able to drive well if you got a lot of practice. Of course, you should learn theory as well, but effective learning consists of both practice and theory.

understand the way everything works
with a easy programming language
like start with a easy slow car
