1. Do some research and look for a good book on python, or possibly a MOOC/set of videos.
2. Follow the content, make sure you understand the concepts. Don't just read the material, it's recommended to code what you're reading so you spend time understanding what you're coding.
3. Solve some exercises.
4. Once you've covered the fundamentals, go and start off with a project. Start with a small project, then create bigger ones.
Essentially, cover the fundamentals and understand them, then go ahead with a project. The real learning is in the projects you'll build as you'll find gaps in your knowledge that you'll cover on the way. But it's good to study the fundamentals so you have a starting point and aren't completely lost.
There are a lot of good books for an introduction to Python, "Automate the boring stuff"[1], "Think Python"[2], and many more. These two are actually available for free online. Someone here can probably recommend some better books or you can look up other recommendations online.
