Machine Learning 101 prototyping workflow

Putting yourself in a data science role when you've been given the amazing task of building this cutting-edge machine learning solution. You have the data and the motivation but don't know where to start. Is it clear in your mind or you have this rush in your chest but without exactly seeing the path and where to begin? My motivation here is simple: give you, in a straightforward way, where to start and also why each step is important. I remember when I started this journey into the data world, being a little bit crushed under the data science buzz words with the associated technics: it was like being in a storm on a little canoe.
