Best of luck to you on your quest!

I would ask here, just how ambitious you are about the Stick. If the answer is "very ambitious", I would suggest getting a teacher immediately. You can save so much time! Seriously.

Next, join a band. You'll get better even faster.

Then, practice technique. Another time saver.

Then, find a style and stick with it (sorry - pun). Learning a style is like building a house - the smaller and more well-planned it is, the faster you'll build it and make it your own.

I'm just saying all these things because I failed to do them all, and spent thirty years learning what I might have learned in five. Oh well!
