Default Pinching out tomatoes

Hi Everyone, I am new to all this and just having a go at growing a few vegetables in pots on the back yard. I have a tomato plants which is starting to flower (currently has 3 flowers). I read that you have to pinch out new shoots to concentrate energy toward growing fruit. But which shoots should i pinch? How do i know that the shoot will not develop into a flower or a fruit in which case i would not want to pinch it out?
