Research what decks are good in the format you want to compete in, and plan accordingly. And practice, practice, practice. The deck is only half the battle; not making playing errors is critical. A good pilot can often win with a less than perfect deck, but a bad pilot will usually lose no matter what.

If there's a pro player in your area, suck up to him like you never did before so that he can teach you the way.

That only works if the players over there are serious and good players. Playing with a bunch of casual newbie type players won't help at all.

playing FNM is still better than not playing/kitchen table. and there will probably be at least a few there that play to win.

other advice : read about the game. multiple websites publish content aimed at making you a better player. 2 i would suggest:
http://www.starcitygames.com/
http://strategy.channelfireball.com/
