The best advice: watch tutorials, there are plenty on this site and a vast number on the internet (Deviantart, Youtube etc.), then practice. Your improvement is all up to you.
  But to give a meaning to this topic, you should tell what's the goal, because this "right direction" could be anywhere.

Its not as bad as you think.
 Many have started far worse than this which shows control.
 Its just practicing and studying other's work at first.
 Ask questions and post updates.

My advice is to try to imagine the form of what you want to create. Try not to start with an outline but a shape, or sketch it first somewhere.
