depends on your goals, if you want to mine / build stuff or shoot and destroy.
focus on tutorials for the first week, then maybe you'll have a better idea of what you would like to do in this game.
make sure you always have something in your skill queue.
This. You really can't decide what you would want to do right away. There is just so much to do in this game. Please don't be discouraged by the steep learning curve when you first start

This game takes about 1-3 months (Depending who you are) to actually get a grip around. Don't be one of those guys who get in the tutorial, and quit a day or two later because they have no idea what to do

Ask questions! Either on Jsp on in your NPC corp where you will start. Most users on jsp are glad to help, but some are deceitful and will try and get you banned. Watch out for them.
Most of the time, the Eve Community is glad to help. Basically #'s = Power (most of the time) So if someone can take you under their wing then you'll basically become an well trained asset
