Rule number one is come in at the right speed. For a steady wind, in a warrior with full flaps the book value is, from memory, 63knts. If you are solo it will be less. IT IS NOT MORE. Nail that speed, or whatever the book value is. Ignore anybody who tells you to come in faster, and if they are an instructor then you already know more than they do.
Then read the first thread cited above and take note of what Chuck Ellsworth says.
The final moments of landing a plane is about the only thing about flying that is not immediately intuitive. It's something that doesn't come easy to most, so don't be too upset if you don't find it simple to do, it takes time.
