How To Be Successful

So today I am wondering as I lay here in bed over coming a summer cold (ugh!) how you become successful at selling your craft? Its funny because when I come into my home and see bits and pieces of my projects sitting around I am glad that I love what I do. At the same time, various blankets, candles, etc can not continue to multiply and look "cute" in my house. At some point you have to be able to move your product. I feel confident in the things that I have done to get my work out there, however unless I am making enough money off of my sales to consider doing it full time I haven't reached the point of personal success. So in other words, I'm not there yet. I am just curious to see what other avenues or ideas other people have used to become successful...Stay tuned...This topic is sure to provide me with lots of research and answers.
