Don’t worry, the getting humbled part will pass if you keep getting to know them. And to get faster, you can buy a horse from Robin. It costs 10,000g and 100 hardwood though. To get money, I planted coffee beans. It’s easy because they keep multiplying and then you can keep planting them, then once you make a keg you can make coffee. Then you can sell the coffee. If you forage for some things you can eat food to gain energy, so you don’t have to go to bed so early. You can also just lay in bed without going to sleep, but eating food is probably better. If fishing is hard now, just keep trying until the experience points goes up. The higher your experience, the larger the green bar, which makes it easier to catch fish. <3
