How do you get missions on GTA 5?

Getting missions in GTA 5 is like following a trail of breadcrumbs but way more fun. You basically start with the story missions, which pop up as big letters on your map. Each letter stands for a character that gives you missions, like M for Michael. Just walk into the yellow circle on the map, and bam, you're on a mission! As you progress, more missions and side activities unlock. Also, don't forget to check your phone in the game, cause sometimes characters will text or call you with work.

I remember being totally confused about this, but it's actually easy. Just look for the question marks and other symbols on your map. Those are your side missions. For main story stuff, follow the character initials. And keep an eye on your in-game phone! Sometimes opportunities for missions come through texts or calls from other characters.

Honestly, just enjoy the chaos. You'll stumble into missions without even trying.
