Find what you want to play, track down the tabs and if available, videos too and start on it. Emulating someone else's style is a good way to gain technique and dexterity.

Stretching, often overlooked, especially by me, it is important too.

Finger style is really self taught. A player just needs guidance. You don't want to start off with things that are way over your head.

The biggest key that I have found to learning finger style arrangements is to go as slow as paint dries at first where no mistakes are made. Making a mistake? You're going too fast. Patience is my biggest hurdle.
