Please read the full Hadith. Allah SWT, in His perfect wisdom, revealed islam to us in a certain order for a reason. "the first thing that was revealed thereof was a Sura from Al-Mufassal, and in it was mentioned Paradise and the Fire. When the people embraced Islam, the Verses regarding legal and illegal things were revealed. If the first thing to be revealed was: 'Do not drink alcoholic drinks.' people would have said, 'We will never leave alcoholic drinks,'"

Once again, I am far from the perfect example. This is only my personal experience and in shaa Allah, a nudge in the right direction for whoever wants to start or is experiencing the same struggles. Please do your own research and seek knowledge in the correct way.
