Acoustic Guitar Method

I’m interested in hearing from someone who was self-taught on acoustic guitar and their methods for learning.?
I am a rapper with a passion for all things rock. I just bought a fender acoustic mas-1 from big lots for $70. Its alright, beginners guitar. Its also my first guitar, and I have a burning desire to learn and master the guitar. Any advice, suggestions, comments would truly be appreciated. Thank you.
Hello, I would agree that chords are probably the best place to start. Here is a website that I have recently started which might help some.

I am still adding information to the site. I usually recommend a program to people who want to learn online. Learning with online programs is great because you can download the program then learn at you own pace. Plus they are very inexpensive for all of the info they have. Here is a great program that I highly recommend:
