In affiliate marketing, it’s easy to get caught up in chasing those big wins.

But the truth is, real joy comes from celebrating the small victories along the way.

Whether it’s a new sale on GotBackup,

a subscriber to my newsletter at www.digitalfivel.com,

or someone diving into John Thornhill’s Webinar Profit Engine—it’s the little moments that keep the momentum going.

I’ve set a massive goal for myself, aiming to hit it by 9/30/28.

But instead of obsessing over that finish line, I focus on the milestones: the first email subscriber, the first recurring sale, the first $1,000.

Each win, no matter how small, reassures me that I’m on the right track.

And here’s the thing—it’s okay to pivot.

If a strategy doesn’t feel right, take a step back, re-evaluate, and adjust.

That’s part of the joy of the journey.

Recently, I’ve streamlined my focus on products like

Michael Cheney’s Secret Money System,

Jim Harmon’s My Lead Gen Secret,

and John & Omar’s Master Affiliates Profit.

They offer recurring commissions and two-tier structures, which means more long-term value and fewer one-time customers.

It’s about building relationships, not just sales.

The takeaway?

Joy is always around if you look for it.

Affiliate marketing isn’t just about the destination; it’s about embracing every step of the process.
