IMHO "not at all" is the decision resulting in the best possible prod.

visit a demoparty, watch the compos, make some friends, have a drink at the campfire, learn a platform, master a craft or art, make a prod, win a compo, join a group, in no particular order

Visiting a demoparty can be difficult depending on where you live on earth...if you are in Europe it should not be that hard tho.
I would advise to get to know what's the demoscene is about before going to a demoaprty. Watch a LOT of demos on Youtube, download them, and then of course try to get to understand how they are made !
Going to a demoparty is always fun but going to a demoparty with a prod ready to be released is IMO much more fun !

Try to make something you like and enjoy making
