If you are a beginner in Google Cloud, then you should know that before using any of the Google Cloud Services, you need to first create a Project. Although you will get some default project after you login to Google Cloud. If you want you can go ahead and use those default project or you can create your own meaningful project which is also the recommended way.
Suppose if you are going to work on two different projects for two different geographically separated customers then creating resources for both Customers in the default project does not make much sense.
