I've found that the early game is all about safety and food. If you can quickly get to a good place on those, you should be able to progress in just about any direction.
I always follow the same template for any new game:
1. Dig/build/claim a room that's at least 7x5.
2. Get a stable source of food. (farming or hunting. Gathering berries doesn't usually work long term)
3. Create a security chokepoint, and plan my main base around it. I usually use the terrain, augmented with walls to create my chokepoint. If I can't do that, I dig into a mountain. If there are no mountains, I just use an ever-expanding outer wall surrounding my base.
