Any tips on how to get good on an electric guitar?

I got an electric guitar for my birthday. I had to become like Saul Goodman to convince my parents to buy me it. But I was wondering if you guys had any advice on how to get good on it? I haven't opened the guitar box yet btw

I was stuck between a stratocaster and a les paul but the stratocaster looked cooler so i got that one.

Start with chords. Focus on good finger placement

Honestly I just started by learning how to read tabs and playing simple songs

later on I watched some videos on the many techniques that exist and that's about it, you get better with time and practice

you could ofc get guitar lessons, which I never did myself but would recommend since you will learn much faster
