Tip:
Get to know what you want to learn: How do you know that you are actually into music?? Just because you are singing when you wish to or listening when you want to, doesn’t mean that you are really into music. You must check with yourself to know what you want.
Ex: When you travel to a new city, you first look at a map and understand your route before taking the walk or the ride, you want to visit famous tourist spots and notable places.
You want to spend time completely to remember each and everything which you want to store in your mind fondly.
In the same way, if you want to learn music read about it and ask people, and google it. Find in which you have interest like what kind of music, the ragas, the structure, etc.
Read about the people who spent their life in the same field. Then ask yourself what do you want and follow your heart to start your journey (of music).
