It made me
great to be starting 
"Its simple, beautiful and elegant. It's also very versatile"
How I did it: I got a job in which I had to use it so bought some books about Ruby and worked some examples through. It's as simple as that. Just plan some time in to do it.
Lessons & tips: Just start. Get a good idea or buy a book and start. Rails and Shoes are good starting apps aswell. Definitly Shoes.
Resources: "Ruby by example" "Why the lucky stiff" but just go to the bookstore and look at what suits you.
