Start practicing drawing, just keep drawing various objects, and work your way up to areas!. And take drawing classes wherever you can get them: summer classes at colleges, night classes, those relatively cheep summer education programs the local parks and rec or similar organization host!. In the mean time do your best to get your ideas recorded for your own use!.
You can try this technique too: start drawing an object of mild complexity, but never erase, just keep drawing over your previous lines, keep them light, and then start picking and slightly darkening the lines that fit better, and continue on like that!. Its hard to explain without a demonstration unfortunately!.
Use reference objects, you've seen the stereotypical artist sticking a thumb out, well it doesn't have to be a thumb, but it still works!. For angles (at first) try finding something with parallel stripes (like a bed sheet) and place that as a background for a still life!. So long as the stripes are distinguishable enough, that may help you reference angles, until you develop a natural eye for it!.
Most importantly be patient with yourself and don't get discouraged!. Try many techniques until you find what works for you then hone the ones that do!.
