I think that's the lesson of this story: you never know what is going to happen. Other lessons: * No matter how good you have it, it's cool to want more. * Self-pity gets results. * Sometimes you can get a second chance. * Sometimes you get a third chance. * Never take a vacation. * Austin Mahone has a bright future as a singer and youth-brand spokesperson. * It's OK to drink tequila in the car if you just had a really good meeting. * If you believe in yourself and work hard, your dreams will come true. * Well ...

So ... * If you believe in yourself and work hard, you have a fighting shot at having your dreams come true.
