What should you do first in Minecraft?

I have just started playing Minecraft and I don’t know where to begin. I understand that the game offers freedom of action, but I still feel lost. I don’t know what to do first – should I look for shelter, collect resources, or something else. This uncertainty is preventing me from enjoying the game, and I am seeking advice from more experienced players. I need help to understand how to start the game correctly and what steps to take first.
