The best advice is to just start taking photos, once you get a basic gist of what you're doing, then pick up a photo text or take a class to figure out how exactly to emulate those shots you really like (you don't want to shoot 'happy accidents' all the time).
Once you get a general idea of depth of field, ISO, aperture, focal plane, etc. you'll probably want to look at different lenses to meet your needs.
After that, depending on what you're shooting, you might want to learn studio lighting, outdoor lighting, etc. and go from there.
Whereas most people will tell you to drill yourself on the basics, it's best to learn what you'll be shooting and how you like to shoot it so that it comes more smoothly once you learn the mechanics.
