### If you aren't doing very well on Steemit and you're a new member, or even if you've been on here for a few months, DON'T GIVE UP!

It takes time to get to where you want to be. Some people just get lucky and seem to do very well from day one. I'll admit, I'm jealous of their success, but I'm not going to quit. Steemit is fun! I've met a lot of awesome people on here, and I'll meet more in the future! You will too. 

### Just have fun. 

They say time flies when you're having fun, so have fun! Post things that make you happy. Actively engage other people's blogs with uplifting comments! Give each other the encouragement they deserve! This is a community after all :D If you wanna be friends with me, then by all means let's be friends! The more friends the  better :) 

Before you know it, you're going to be doing well on here. Just wait and see!
