haha well it took me over a year to get where I am now
I started remixing in December 2009 and I'm using Fruity Loops 9 which is the easiest program for beginners
At first I played around with FL and got bored but I watched some tutorials on Youtube and got more and more interested in it.. then after I knew the basics I started to remake songs and remixes. this helped me to know the song structures better.. so yeah, it takes you long to learn it but if you really want it then you forget the time
