I have see where you are in the map, and I would say somethings: (unless if you are not the VisuVeri in the map)
1 - If you want to make your island grow, move your island to the darker blue area, where Qwe5, Masteria and many other islands are. That is where you receive your land tiles, and is know as Island Source.
2 - You have a certain amount of workers, and that is according to your level. If you are level 3, you have 3 workers, and you can only upgrade 3 things at a time. If you have the premium account, you can put up to 5 things in the queu list to be done with these workers. Even if you have more resources to do so.
3 - The quest menu (big Q on the right side of the screen) will show you what to do or where to go for the first main quests. They are a good tutorial on how to start.
