I read a post by Francesca the other day and it got me thinking about what success is to you.
To me, success is a lot of things. Any goal reached. That I set. Not something I read in a book or blog.
Something that'd make me feel that the day accomplished something.

Today, I did my 1st 4 rounds of kettlebell exercises. That was a success. I usually put up with it for 10 minutes then bail. (YouTube stuff, not a personal trainer who'd whip me).
I pushed to 20 minutes, and felt so hyped that it'd be silly to sit without cooling down (that's how unfit I am) so I headed out walking - in the rain with a tee-shirt on. I certainly cooled down but I also had a successful morning.
Success is anything done that moves you closer to your goals. One of my goals (away from work stuff) is losing belly fat.
In terms of affiliate marketing success, I see my goal as helping others do something that moves them closer to reaching just one of their goals.
What goals do you think your audience has? And are you helping them reach that goal (or goals)?
