My First Affiliate Money!

Hi WA! this is going to be a very brief post. But I wanted to share my little tiny success. I checked my Amazon associates account, and found that someone actually clicked through one of my blog posts to purchase something giving me my very first affiliate commission of $6.93!

It’s not much of course and I can’t even say it’s mine yet because it doesn’t meet the threshold for Amazon to payout. But, it is significant because I have been doing my best to follow the training here at WA, making sure I do everything as prescribed. And it’s working!

I will keep plowing through the training and making notes so that I have a good process developed. And in time, I hope this little drip of cash will grow into a steady stream of income.

I have struggled a lot with “shiny object syndrome” and I am certain I would have been more successful by now had I stayed on course with the training exactly as it is presented.

I read a book recently Called “The One Thing” by Jay Papasan and Gary Keller. I found it extremely helpful as a way to structure my daily work habits. I know how many voices are screaming for your attention when you’re trying to start something new in life. This book gives you a good process to ignore all the noise and stick to one thing. It complements Kyle’s teaching about only working on one project at a time nicely.

“If you chase two rabbits…you will not catch either one.” –Russian Proverb

All the best to those who are just starting here at WA. You chose the correct path to follow.
