The best advice I could give is to read as much poker related literature as possible and soak up tips from the pro's. Maybe subscribe to a monthly mag. WPT is pretty good, as is bluff.
Poker is a never-ending learning curve, so put yourself head and shoulders above most low stakes players by knowing what your doing strategy-wise.
Not a bad graph by the way. Mine looks like this \ (but bigger!) lol

Seems like you're doing pretty good with only 800 some hands of play.

DON'T move up in limits until you are totally Bankrolled for it.
Learn about bankroll management and stick to it.

At lower stakes, try not to play fancy and bluff as often. Be super patient and wait for the right situation to make a play. Don't get greedy too. You're not going to turn $10 to $1000 the next day, so don't gamble. Greed was what killed my BR at first. Hope you do well.
