First thing you should do is ask this question:

Why do I want to go into IT?

If the answer is "make a lot of money", then do something else.

If the answer is, "I love electronics and computers, and I'm fascinated by what they can do", then be prepared to read, a lot!

If you love what you do, you will make a lot of money at it, because it's less like a job. Someone asked me what I would do if I was rich. I said, I would travel the world for a month, and then start a computer consulting firm. Because computers are what I love to do.

Find what your passion is, and do that! You'll be happy throughout your life, and you won't get up in the morning and say "crap, gotta go fix crappy computers again!"

Depending on your current skill level you should pick up some books and or take some courses. If your a novice I recommend, I know the name may set you off but they are good books, any of the ?? for dummies books. They are an easy read and will keep you on track as some of the computer jargon can get a little dry. Then I would take a course, A+, to start. I don't care if you program or administer you need to have a basic understanding on how the physical computer works. If you can get an internship or a tech job go get it, if anything just for experience. I guess that would be a nice start and you can take it from there.

Good luck!!

Learn, learn, learn, learn some more, get comfortable with computers, take a course in IT (you can find them freely someplaces), apply to IT jobs (who cares if you get rejected, there might be one that is willing to give you al the training you need if you show potential), just be downright interested and passionate in computers.

If you voluntarily take qualifications such as the ECDL, you'll have a good grounding to get a foot in the door of the IT industry.
