My two cents worth:
Find a good school that will teach you electricity. How it work, why it works. What i mean is try to learn as much as you can from the books, articles, by asking, magazines. Learn, learn, learn. At the same time try to find a position in this field this way you are learning the books version and the hands on version. The more you learn the easier to troubleshoot a system.
Then again the electrical field requires you to be up-to-date. If you want to succeed you must keep up with the learning process.
Good Luck
