If you're new to tablets (which you said you are XD )
just use nothign but it, you'll adapt to it and its a brilliant way to imporve hand eye cordination.
when I got my first tablet i was able to use it perfectly in only a few days.

Like ~Pakaku said, use the tablet for everything, not just drawing. Use it for opening files and even surfing the web. The more you use it, the more natural it becomes.

It's like learning how to drive. You just have to practice practice practice, until it becomes second nature.

As for how long this will take, it differs from one person to another. It make take a few hours or more than a week. The longer you use it, the quicker you will get used to it.

And generally just drawing every day with it.
