Did I just say that aloud???
Yes!
Yes!!
Yes I did!!!
A frustrated and annoyed and angry newbie will not be motivated to keep steeming and keep writing contents especially when he/she only earns $0.001 on posts.
It could be an annoying situation really after expending energy, zeal and efforts to put up a write up, at the end, the post earns only few cents.
It becomes more frustrating when you see posts with few words and sentenses, haphazardly composed getting upvotes from whales, dolphines, sharks and minnows.
Don't be discouraged!!!
I am also learning to crawl. What i do is, i don't focus on the cents on my posts. I am less concerned about the $0.000 on my posts now, what i am eager to achieve is to be heard, followed and a weighty reputation. That at the back of my mind, i surf on by:
Commeñting on posts that catch my iñterest.
Upvoting posts.
Once in a while, create posts on my experience on steemit.
Attract more followers. The secret is, your followers are your upvoters. If you don't have weighty followers, your upvote will always be frustrating.
Lastly, write good contents.
Just like i participate on facebook, nairaland and other social medium without looking out for $$$$$$$$$$. I should do so on a platform that might make me earn something.
Don't be frustrated
Don't be discouraged
Don't be angry
Your little efforts on steemit will pay off in due course. The words are:
PATIENCE
PERSISTENCE
PERSEVERANCE
All thanks to 
Don't give up yet because you are almost there.
