"fruit for fruit."
Greetings from sunny St. Croix U.S. Virgin Islands!
From my part of the world, fruit for fruit means using one way of earning to promote another means of earning income which is a fair exchange.
I have been doing this for awhile consistently and I am happy so far.
When I accepted the invitation to join Wealthy Affiliate from Grace better known as littlemama, I had no idea how I would be able to continue after upgrading to premium.
But, I never gave up even though the challenges with my sight, computer inexperience, lack of marketing skills and other little things were against me.
Something kept me moving forward. I couldn't touch it. But, it's there!
Some have great wealth. Unfortunately, I don't, not as yet. It will soon come for me and many others here.
One thing I do have is the ability to think clearly and to see an opportunity like Wealthy Affiliate and just go for it.
For months, I have been supplementing my meagre income by selling avocado to pay my monthly premium of $49 to Wealthy Affiliate.
These avocados are grown on my land here on St. Croix. It gives me pleasure to place them in the hands of my people for nourishment.
The problem is they are seasonal and need time to grow again . This is the beauty of nature. It replenishes itself.
The point of my message is very simple.
Avocados sales are helping me to fulfill a dream. Helping me to grow my business at Wealthy Affiliate into something that help others as well as my family. Monetizing my website in the right way will bring income just like the avocado.
Fruit for fruit is GREAT!
So, please hold on to your dream and never give up!
Have a fruitful Friday.

Great story Maxine. You are an inspiration to us all. We need to look at bigger picture. I love avocados! Keep on the good work!
Hey Maxine,
I'm looking for a way to pay for my monthly payments also and this encourages me.

This is encouragement to all of my friends at Wealthy Affiliate.
Where there is a will, a way is there for you.
Sit down, ponder on it and you will find a way.
Passion is not only for one's niche. It is also for life and basic machinations.
All is well, my dear Elaine.
All is well!
Peace

Hello, that is so wonderful to hear. All it shows is how hungry you're for success. Believe me, the sacrifice is worth it. All great businesses start off small.
I know of someone who's father starter of selling garden plants from door to door and now that business is one of the biggest nurseries around employing many people.
I also heard of a gentleman who started his construction business with just a hammer and a saw and how he grew that business to employing many. As the song says" it only takes a spark to get a fire going". All you need is a start no matter how small and grow from there. Wishing you all the best of success.
So happy to connect with you, Norman
.
Your words are solid as gold and true.
Every day I pray for the strength and guidance to continue what I have started.
And, I am still here.
My avocados are gifts and I share them, just taking enough from my people to survive also.
Avocado started the fire. So, let the fire stay ablaze until I achieve success.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment.

Wish I had a few of your avocados right now. Just got two that are marginal. It's kinda like Russian roulette, buying avocados here. Half of them turn out to be no good.
