First start with some basic finger exercises that will built your fingers to use on fretboard more smoothly. Then get some knowledge about the scales (atleast Major and Minor scales). So that you get a little bit of idea how things starts and work on guitar. Then start learning Chords and Strumming Patterns. Then some chords combinations. It will take some time to get balance or rhythm on the hands. So be patient on that. Then start covering some songs so that you will get idea how to sing while playing guitar. But don't just stuck on the songs. Start improvising on the scale. You can use backing tracks of drums or any other instrument. The improvisation will play a key role in your creativity. Then learn some new techniques or approach to play the same things but in different styles. They most important thing is consistency. You have to be consistent and you have to practice with discipline. Avoid distraction like using phone while practicing. And also start listening to some guitars. It will give you new ideas and improve you a lot. Because listening good music is as much important as our practice. With these things, you will get a decent tone or balance on your guitar. You will able to play many things and not all the things. Because somethings need more time of practice and some patience as well read less
