Playing the music that interests you is a great motivational tool!
My mom was a pianist, so all her books and music were lying around, which to me was a fascinating puzzle worth solving! Her first book, "Teaching Little Fingers to Play" (the John Thompson method, for those in the know), was the key to decoding music theory and notation. By the time I started taking lessons, I'd already taught myself to read music.
To me, notation makes perfect mathematical sense.
