If I added a record yesterday and one today, how do I order the results by ‘select * from table_name’ by getting the entry added today first and then the older ones?

If your primary key field is an auto-incremented integer, then you can do the following:
SELECT * FROM table_name ORDER BY pk_column DESCIf you’re not using an auto-incremented integer for your primary key, then you’ll need to do as Andre suggested and timestamp your rows.
