If you are doing card magic or coin magic, there are many sleights that you need to master before you could progress to the more professional magic tricks respectively. If you were to wait for yourself to perfect these sleights, you would have probably lost interest or given up magic by then. I would then suggest that you do the following while you spend time privately to master the necessary sleights over a period of time.
Start with some gimmicks. You can get a variety of magical gimmicks either from your local magic shops or purchase them from online magic shops. From gimmicks, you may want to progress on to self-working magic tricks using playing cards. Self-working tricks as the name implies are magic tricks where their effects happen naturally when you follow the procedures of the performance routines accordingly. Self-working magic tricks require little or no sleight of hands at all and are therefore relatively manageable.
Generally, professional magic tricks using playing cards or coins require many sleights that take a lifetime to master. magic (mind reading) generally require relatively less sleights (or in fact none at all) as compared to card magic and coin magic. So you may want to begin with first instead of other types of magic such as card magic or coin magic.
For your personal education in magic, I would recommend that you watch the World’s Greatest Magic DVD series. Each World’s Greatest Magic DVD series features a particular magic trick performed by different magicians with their individual style of presentation. From watching these different presentations, they would enrich your experience with magic. That is the basis of how we learn and become an expert in any subject in any field – with continued exposure to the same thing, experiencing them again in a variety of ways.
