-research before investing sp.
-invest in your cores (shield/armor/pg/cpu) early.
-play with the militia gear till you find some suit/weapon combo's that work for you.
-find your own motivation/goals & keep them in mind. It will help during those stomps & will keep you focused.
-corp shop. Look around for some FUN people to play with.
-stick with it. The more you play the better you get, the better you get the faster the sp rolls in, faster the sp rolls in the quicker you get cooler stuff.
^this^ is all good advice.
I added the underline for a part I think is VERY important but often overlooked. Don't spend too much time aching that you're not hitting top 3 every match because TBH it's not likely to happen for a while yet. I'm not saying don't ask for tips and tricks or anything as silly as that it's just you're likely to be profoundly out skilled and out gunned so try not to sweat getting ground into dog food.
Don't even bother comparing your stats to other peoples there's a lot of people with at the very least months (if not years) experience and we just know more about the game than you do, as long as you're learning and practicing you're getting better and that's the objective.
A point I would add to the list though is LEARN BASIC ECONOMICS (lots of players just don't get it) figure out what your average number of deaths/game and your average isk gain/game is and build some loadouts around that and aim under if possible. Your most expensive gear isn't necessarily your friend.
also add me if you want we'll squad up and I'll give you some pointers.
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair.
