Hey Buddy, congrats on the 1st step that you posted in the correct section (no flaming). Now start reading for the tons of threads for newbies to get started. Also for god's sake don't buy those fucking make money in 2 seconds ebooks by the guru's. 
Tip: I think there is also some challenge thread started by SEO_Mike, so that is a nice place to hang around.

That's one of the best newbie questions I've seen. Just realizing that you can be overwhelmed will help prevent it.
Just accept the fact that there's no real secret, don't try to read every blog, visit every forum/site, buy every ebook looking for something that doesn't exist. Making it in this business takes work.
The two most important things are time and money, the more you have of one the less you need of the other. You may have to do most of the grunt work when first starting out, but you should begin outsourcing as soon as you can afford it.
Here's what I recommend you start with.
The basics of setting up and maintaining a site, hosting, domain name, etc.. Learn some html and css, you don't need to be an expert but it'll help when you want to tweak a page layout.
SEO basics. Title tags, meta description, keyword density, proper backlink building methods, sitemaps, etc.. Google Aaron Wall
PPC basics. Keywords, adgroups, keyword groups, ad copy, keyword research, difference between content and search networks, knowing the difference between a landing page and a regular webpage. (see Perry Marshall, MindValley Labs, Google Adwords Help Center)
There's much more but that should get you started. You'll get the most education from experience, don't be afraid to try/test new (legal) things (unless you decide to go BH, then I guess you wouldn't care), but don't just jump into PPC and blow your wad before you realize that you were doing it wrong.
The most important thing is to just do something, don't spend all of your time trying to learn. Build a site, start a blog, set up a phpbay store, just do something.

Start with the basics, then don't waste too much time theorizing. Once you thing you understand basic concepts, throw up a campaign and heavily limit the max spend. When you encounter problems, look them up on the fly and fix them.
I'm finding 3 points of failure to examine in any campaign.
1)CTR on Ad
2)CTR from landing page to offer
3)Conversion on the offer.
By figuring out where your problem is, you can target which knowledge you need at the time.

once u drop the hype in everything you see, start to focus yourself and find what your most interested in/ and eventually possibly best at - SEO organic, PPC, emails, etc.
then start scouring the internet on that focused topic and learn it as you would any other course in school, from the basics up. dont get a head of yourself by wanting to learn the "next best thing" but rather understand what you're getting into and what you need to do.
once you have a sound idea of how to do this, find an offer or product u want to promote, and start building, you will make mistakes but once you have your mind wrapped around the theory its time to put it into action. From there you just start fine tuning it all. You could even find out after all that, your path of choice isnt right for your and you could move on, just keep in mind not to hop too many times else a year goes by and it gets wasted and times keep changing as well...
