I learned early on, but I can say that for me, nothing helps to improve my work more than drawing other people.
*and to be aggresive.

nice, sounds like you are starting to actually LOOK at the world, not just seeing it. i thoroughly believe more artistic/creative minds are more sutied to tripping.

The hardest obstacle in learning how to draw is learning how to get over initial judgments and criticism of our own work as we make it, and just letting it "be" what it is ... and I think this is why kids are (initially) the best "artists". They don't yet care what other people will think of their work, so there's no pressure on the outcome. They don't care whether they are deemed an "artist" by others. They just draw because it's FUN ... and thus, they tend to have the most creative and inspired (and inspiring) work. Their lack of precise technical ability says nothing of the power of their visions. A person with the technical prowess of a mature adult and the unadulterated creative visions of a child would certainly make some incredible work.
I'm happy to hear you want to learn to draw, even at an older age. That says a lot for you ... most people won't bother once they've gotten past a certain age, and routinely practice saying the same excuse "I can't even draw stick figures/I can't even draw a straight line/blah blah" ... it's nothing more than an excuse. Anybody, and everybody, with at least one arm and hand attached to their body can draw, if they are motivated. The only limits that exist are the ones we make for ourselves by saying "I can't ..."
