Start by taking a sheet of copy paper and fold it in half length-wise......

Looks like it has a dutch roll problem.

Before you star building try to anticipate what kind of flying you
actually will do. Then decide what what material you are comfortable
with, or wish to learn. Aluminum? Wood? Composite (fiberglass)? Then
start looking for plans or kits that fit you needs. Don't forget to
factor in needed build space, heat, and tools needed.

Some of us like to build. For the rest keep in mind the old saying
"If you want to build, build. If you want to fly....BUY."

One part at a time and after a few hundred to a few thousand hours and
many parts, you assemble, get it inspected and fly it.

Seriously, it is a learning process that you learn as you go and the
end result is a smile that will be a very long time fixture of your
person.

Just like many another homebuilt, you need an iron and a pair of
scissors, scotch tape to stick the pattern on....

You start with a scrap of pink rafter insulation -
then you iron it flat (!)
and end up with a flying wing with a L/D of maybe 30:1
at a flying speed of two MPH....

Begin at the beginning.
Go on till the end.
Then stop.

Each of these takes some doing, some more, some less, all depending on
the mission, as already rehearsed.

The problem is, once you start, you CAN'T stop!

Yup :-)
There are a lot of "I'll finish that one day" sitting in sheds all over the
world, I doubt that any would be classed as "Ahhh fuggit, I'm going to stop
working on that now" :-)

Get a real big billet of aluminum and cut away everything that
doesn't look like an airplane.
