What is the first step in becoming Wiccan?

As far as becoming part of the Wiccan path everything I have read states that you must study the path for a year and a day and then dedicate your self to the path. I would highly suggest buying a book on Wicca. The one I am currently reading is Teen Witch by Silver RavenWolf. Another good one that I have read is Wicca: The complete Craft by D.J. Conway.
