(#1- In life, you won't always get what you want.)

When you are on steemit, you want to make posts that will be successful. You look up to those people who have $1000 posts or more and you envy them, and you make an attempt to make one of those posts. Then later, you look at your post and how much it's making...and drumroll...It's only at one cent! And you get frustrated that the post only made one cent and you have one comment from a minnow saying "follow me and ill follow you and upvote my posts" or something like that. This shows you that you won't always get what you want.
