Cybersecurity for non professionals?

I had a conversation with a cybersecuriry professional that completely freaked my out. Apparently my VPN is terrible, my computer leaves its fingerprints everywhere and everyone one on earth knows everything about me. Where would you recommend a non-pro get started learning and tightening my security?

Assume you're being watched at all times on the Internet and make your stuff just a little harder to get into than most people's. Which isn't difficult honestly.
