This is a very common question put here I'm sure you will find a lot of answers to this by just searching the site.
Anyway from my side I would say that you could start with a dummy kernel that just prints a message on the screen. then slowly progress to more complicated stuff such as Interrupts,device handling, memory management etc one by one(if your lucky)
You may use GRUB as your bootloader because its open source and a lot easier that writing your own which may take you a month or so (depending on your knowledge level)
Anyway Whatever you do never give up hope and BEST OF LUCK
