Help a new guy in music

Hi guys,

So for all my life I've been listening to music and enjoying it but I never learned to play an instrument. Which I really regret now.

I'm 24 years old and tomorrow my own very first keyboard will arrive. After doing some research, and along with my small budget, I decided to buy a Yamaha NP-12 BK. It comes in a set with a pedal, stand and headphones which I hope will suffice for me to start learning.

I wanted to ask you what are the best sources online for practicing and what are the main things I should be focusing on now since I do not have a clue about playing the keyboard or reading music sheets.

I bought it because I know it will motivate me to continue, and this is something I have to do in my life. Learn to play.

What are your thoughts on learning software? Some YouTube channels that could help? Some websites perhaps? Or maybe some books that will give me a good intro? Should I take classes immediately or practice first and then when I get stuck go see a professional?

I want to practice mostly by myself since classes are quite expensive here in Croatia, and as I said my budget is not really good.

Every advice is much appreciated.

Thank you good people.

Wish me luck! :-)
