Get an "Electronics experimenter kit", and start with is manual before touching any part.

If the kit is really good, its manual should be superb for starting from zero.

yeah thats were i started
its a lot of fun learning electronics

 

start also with learning the basic electrical laws, they might be a bit boring in the beginning but when you fully understand these laws your progress will be much quicker
and it gets more and more intresting.
