I don't know your age but sure that you are too old as you want to be in this industry in coming 10 years. It is the best time when you can groom yourself.
1. Try to develop analytical thinking
2. If you don't know any language start from C, it is fantastic language to start with..... Avoid starting with Basic
3. Learn some proprietary language preferably from Microsoft like VB
4. Then get hold of some open source technology like Java
This much is sufficient and you will find in good place in next 10 years.

Go to College and get a degree in CS. Thats one sure way to be recruited. You can always programming C++ and Microsoft languages with free development editors.
