Celebrate the small victories in life
This should apply everywhere in your life: Make sure that you focus on, and enjoy everything that goes right in your life. Focus on the positive as they always say.
Celebrating the positive can do wonders for your happiness, self esteem, motivation, relationships, and even health. The more you look at the good things in your life, the less you will notice the things that kinda suck. The bad things will start to loose their hold over you.
I know a lot of people just roll their eyes when they hear people talking like this but it really is true. The secret to happiness and sucess is all locked away in your head. It’s all in how you look at things.
The reason I’m writing about this is because Jason and I are starting to make some money off of the site and even though it’s not a lot (yet) it’s very exciting and is enough to give let us know that everything we’ve done so far has been worth it.
We are not climbing the ranks as fast as some other blogs have, yet faster than a lot of others. Do we worry about that? Not really! We know that if we stick it out long enough, and keep improving and learning as we go we will reach our goals soon enough.
If you have any inspirational stories about focusing on the positive, or want to let us know how your blog is doing please feel free to post a comment below.

To be fair, if your site is growing — no matter how slow — progress has been made. Even if it is just getting, over the course of a week, 20 uniques a day instead of 10. That is still progress!
This site is really good, and so are positive thoughts, I’ll be staying around guys.

I have a cousin who was in an auto accident when she was somewhere around her pre-teen or teen years. She had her pelvis broken in 7 places and the doctors said she would never walk again. But she was both determined and optimistic about her own recovery. She kept a positive attitude and worked very hard at her therapy, and has been walking through life, even though they said there was no hope.

Glad that both of you are still confident that your site will make it big one day.

You make such a good point, you should always focus on the positive things in your life - however small. Each little success will help you on you way to achieving your goals.
