How difficult is it to install a ceiling fan?

The added challenge is that the existing light is not centered in the room. I would have to cut drywall in order to extend and/or move the electrical source. Also, after perusing a DIY book, it said something about possibly needed to install a fan brace against the frame of the house to stabilize it so it doesn't wobble or come loose. Is this too much to deal with if time is a factor, and if this is my first time installing a fan?
