BEFORE plus a verb

I'm a bit confused about "before", especially when a verb comes after
""Before you start off, fasten your seat belt"
"Before you criticise your colleague, you should look in the mirror"
"Before taking off, make sure the aeroplane has some fuel in the tanks"
This is a long standing problem for me. I usually turn the sentence into something else that I do know how to say.
I'd be grateful for a few examples.
