Just pick a few numbers and resize upwards slowly from the smallest and watch 
what happens with your design. Pick breaking points where you have notice 
serious layout issues and adjust it going from there. In the beginning you 
probably can just start out with the MQs in any of the available mobile 
boilerplates, also if you don’t use these in full, and take it from there. 

It’s better to just start with just a few MQs and a really simple layout than 
to ponder on what to do. Experiment!

Again, I’d argue that it’s always best to let the content guide the design. 
Acknowledging content gives you limitations on what you can do, which should 
stimulate your design creativity. And mobile design is even more about the 
content itself.
