Help with telnet and nmap?

Ive been trying to get into hacking for a while and im trying to hack into my own computer using nmap and telnet. As i understand it, i nmap my ip address to see what ports are open. Then when i find out which ports are open i go into telnet and type "open (ip address) (# of open port)". i get "Connecting To (ip address)...Could not open connection to the host, on port 80: Connect failed. What am i doing wrong?

Sounds like the port isn't open by the looks of it.
