Hello and Please HELP!!!

Hi.

Im an new to poker .. very new!

I like the idea of the game.. but I cant seem to get a foothold.

I have only been playing for two months (limit texas holdem at low stakes $0.05 - $0.10).

I have been reading quite a lot about it, 10 or so books so far.. mainly by Sklansky.

So I guess what I am asking is which area of the game should I concentrate on first and whats the best way of going about it?

Obviously practice, but with poker there are so many variables its difficult for me to know if I am playing correctly or not.

Until I gat a basic foothold Im going to struggle, so obviously Id be interested to see what you guys come up with.

Thanks
