I know how much work there is to it. I'm not that stupid. I'm devoting my life to music, and I know to practice daily. I was just hoping to get some exercises to work on to improve my playing abilities considering that I can't find too many sources dedicated to this instrument.

Some people have it in them, others don't. Practice a lot and see how it turns out.

So basically attain any techniques and skills that come across me?

I'm looking to take up the keyboard and I wanted to weed out my practices by working on the required skills/techniques in order to be able to reach the virtuoso level. Well, I know that the virtuoso level pretty much covers every spectrum, but if you guys could narrow down the absolute essentials and give me some lessons to work on it would be really helpful. Thanks.

 
P.S.: Any dexterity exercises would be helpful also.
