I keep looking down at the bottom of my browser, blinking my eyes, and wondering if I'm dreaming.

I was on the phone, talking with my sister. When I looked down my normally 0.00 clickbank notify firefox addon suddenly said $26.98 .

I closed my eyes ... opened them again ... I couldn't believe it. I have been marketing for about 1 1/2 months. My mentor kept telling me, give it 3 months and if you haven't made a sale, you can quit. I'm so glad he said that, because it made me stick with it and keep on it.

It's just the momentum that I needed to push onward. I feels great.

Here's a toast to all the newbies... It really is possible! Keep at it!

    Congratulations. You are now officially an independent business person. You must now start devising clever worded rants for the day that you can tell your boss just what he may do with your job. You may outsource that speech writing if you want to - because you're the boss!

      FANTASTIC!!

      Treat yourself to some well-deserved coffee (or perhaps chai tea). It's a wonderful feeling, isn't it, knowing you have overcome prior limitations?

      Congrats again!

            The first money I made online was a 3 cent click on Adsense. I remember it clearly. I was so excited! It was only 3 cents, but it told me this "making money online" thing worked. And I was like, "If I can make 3 cents, I can make 3 dollars, and if I can make 3 dollars, I can make 3,000 dollars - it's all about repeating the actions that got me there."

            It hasn't been an entirely smooth and easy road since then, and it won't be for you either, but it's SO fulfilling because every piece of work you put into your online business - every single bit of your time and creativity - is spent shaping your own future and building your own legacy.

            How cool, right????

    Hi peetred,

    Congratulate! Attitudes are contagious. And I feel that yours are worth to catch for every beginner. The big things start with little steps. And then they outgrown themselves.

    You are on your way. Go further.

    Many successes,

    Sandor

    Well done. I am into my first week of studying all things with internet marketing. Hearing someone who has started not long ago have success is a great motivator for a newbie such as myself. Hope it's the first of many.
