Welcome on board, yummi! As for basic tips or things you can start with it would be helpful to learn what you already did in the game. Having started 2 days ago, surely you have already welcomed all the villagers and sown your 15 parsnips? And maybe you've already given someone a gift?
Best check your journal regularly. It tells you what you could do next. And get tips from "Living off the Land" on TV twice a week.
Otherwise, the game is so free that everyone can proceed as they please. Personally, I always make sure that I upgrade my tools at Clint's as soon as possible, especially pickaxe and axe, so that you use less energy cutting wood and breaking stones. Oh yes, and a bigger backpack! I earn most of the money I need at the beginning by fishing as much as I can and selling foraged items. Just don't sell any wood, stone, fibre or sap - you will need it.
You will have tons of fun - but watch out! SDV is highly addictive.
