So, finally after a month of trying and a few sales I received my first clickbank cheque of $149*. I am really happy that I have reached that amount in such little time. I was not expecting to see any results for the coming 6 months... this was the minimum time investment that I was ready to put into affiliate marketing before I start seeing results. It all happened earlier than expected. Now I just need to reset my short term goals so that I can achieve the $50k in a year from here.
I think keeping a journal is a good thing; it will keep me motivated along the way. I have also decided to make a copy of every cheque I will receive from clickbank and I will stick it on my wall just next to my desk. This will also help me to stay focus on my goal and motivate me anytime I feel I am not earning enough online (so that I can see how much I earned in the beginning without knowing much, means I can earn more now if I put in some effort).
I guess the key to succeeding in making money online is to know where to start from. For my own experience, I have heard about clickbank many times in the past, seen all the revenue proofs, all the money that I was promised to earn too... but never seen a bit of it. But this year when I decided to look into clickbank again, I checked around what other affiliates have been doing and copying what they have been doing. Testing what works and what not. Also I think we all have access to too much information online and it is not really easy to decide what we can try and we also have the feeling of security; what if I try this and it does not work? I bet you have asked yourself this question thousand of times... I did, but finally took the plunge and I am glad I did :)

UPDATE: Scanned and resized Cheque
Sorry I had to blur some personal information, also I had to resize it to fit in. But anyway the cheque is of $149.46. In my goal countdown in the sidebar I will be using only who numbers.
