"Hitotsu" has more than one meaning. The root of the word, "hito" means roughly "one"/"first", and this corresponds with the various meanings hitotsu can have, depending on how it is used.

It is a counter for the number one.

It can mean "one [of something]."

It can be used for the beginning/start of something(because of it's "1" connotation, of course).

At the beginning of a sentence, it's meaning is akin to "for one thing", "first off", etc..

Once you get the general implication of the word, it's various uses will all begin to make sense, and you will be able to understand it's exact meaning by logical deduction, depending on the context you find it in.
