   I want to say "perseverance", but it's only been 10 weeks, so that statement would be demonstrably fallacious.  I try to learn a new aspect everyday, each day I learn a little more about using proper keywords, SEO, investing a little more time in my writing, etc.

   That is a great feeling.  No apologies necessary for being Happy!  I recall jumping for joy when I made my first 36 cents!!  It's like giddy parents over baby's first tooth! 
   Yeah, teeth HAPPEN, Mom & Dad!!   LOL

   That's awesome Michael! I was feeling a unsure till until this morning myself. I look at my Amazon and I made 4 sales. I was like Wow. This gives me a bit of hope since I'm not on the Adsense just my own Affiliate. Good luck and hope the sales keep coming in!

    Nice job. I have gotten a few but that's it. I need to go back and re-evaluate my ads. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Thanks everybody!  It reminds me of the Infinite monkey theorem, if you had a monkey sitting at a typewriter hitting random keys with an infinitie amount of time, it will eventually produce Shakespeare.  Well, I'm that monkey, ta-da!

    My hubs don't get a lot of sales. I just don't have the right topics or picking the wrong products. Congratulations! Your're doing a good job.
