Adventism is not something that can occur over night, as with any other belief. First you must understand what the denomination believes in and what our doctrines are. To become a Seventh-Day Adventist you must believe that there is only 1 God as with other christian denominations. It is important as an SDA to observe the sabbath and know that this is a day devoted to God, helping you to spend time in his word (the Bible) and gain a spiritual understanding of what he wants for your life. Just building this relationship with God can help in the first stages of becoming SDA. I'd say a very important thing to do is find an SDA church to go to, where you think you will comfortable and welcomed.
