git init
touch README.md
git add .
git commit -m "initial commit"
git remote add origin https://github.com/YourAccount/firstPush.git
git push -u origin master

Actuall I run git remote add origin https://github.com/YourAccount/firstPush.git this command wrong. When I again push data with correct path I got error

fatal: remote origin already exists.

You can follow any of the following 3 methods:

1. Remove the old origin and readd the correct one:

   git remote remove origin
   git remote add origin <correct address>
   

2. Update the existing remote links:

   git remote set-url origin <correct url>
   

   you can optionally provide --push to the above command.

3. Update the remote section of your .git/config file:

   [remote "origin"]
       url = <correct url>
       fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
   [branch "master"]
       remote = origin
       merge = refs/heads/master
   

You can also refer to git documentation for the git remote commands.
