well first of all it helps when u choose whether its going to be hi poly or low, mid poly before u actually start modeling, so u can sort of picture already how much detail u r planning on doing, what its purpose (of the model), what shape it'll take, all before the actual modeling, from their u then go ahead and start working on the mesh, hi poly u would most likely a very smooth mesh that has clean lines but at the same time holds a great amount of detail, low poly , well, quiet obvious, try to use a little as possible the polys, but at the same time be able to give it the basic shape, so its recognizible.. just go on from there
