Advice for someone who's never held a guitar.

Want to learn electric guitar so I purchased an Ibanez ART120, mini amp and accessories.

There is so much out there about learning, I don't know where to begin. YouTube, Learn how to read music, Read book?Due to the virus in person learning not an option. Also have low speed internet so live 2 way FaceTime etc not an option either.

Goal: Proficient for home playing

Time: Can easily do an hour a day

Short term expectations: Learn correctly and efficiently

Analogy-

As an expert motorcycle rider I learned the correct way and many years later it has paid off. Some people that have been riding 30 years and still a hot mess because in the beginning did not learn correctly and now their muscle memory can't be undone. I don't want to be that guy with a guitar because I screwed up in the begining.
