Play every day. Seriously.
Take ten minutes out of your day. Learn G. Learn D. Learn how to go from G to D. Then start with C, Am, Em. Your fingers might hurt until you develop callouses but they will come quickly if you work at it. Playing guitar is simple, just work at it slowly and learn one thing at a time.
The first three chords I learned, which you can use to play lots of G, C, D songs (Brown-Eyed Girl) are
G (320033)
Cadd9 (X32033) <-- much easier transition than CMaj (X32010)
D (XX0232)
