A few more ones:

Keep your axe out of your hands when you're near your workshop - if you accidently swing it at a processing station, you will lose all of the items inside of it.

When a storage box is selected, right-clicking an item will move it from the storage box to your inventory and vice versa.

Try to get your tools upgraded as early on as you can. It makes gathering resources much quicker.

Also, when unlocking space in your backpack, only the first row you unlock costs 400 gols; the next one costs 600 and the one after that 900.
