It can depend entirely on your genre. For instance, a murder mystery will usually start with the murder, sometimes showing you how it happened, sometimes even revealing the killer so the mystery is more in how the detective proves it and the cat and mouse, and sometimes with the detective with the body. A normal child/person suddenly thrown into adventure usually starts with at least half a day of school/work to show how normal/boring life is pre-adventure. This often applies to romances too. Lots of series who do it like this like to start with an alarm clock wake up or start of the school/work day. And when it doubts, TV Tropes has a list of openings, research which often apply to your genre or just pick on that seems fun and can be applied to your plot.
