Learn before your earn, say...virtue of frugality.
It is easy to equate earn to money but can your equate it to a more human value? And if so, what would it be? With the understanding that #pept is a traffic exchange community supporting a Learn Before You Earn value philosophy, I @fworld share my example of being frugal.
Now where to start? Well, we all have to eat something. So we start with a food example. I seldom eat out. I can't remember the last time I ate in a fast food restaurant. Sometimes my wife will pickup a starter kit for a #pizza or she picks one up from her favorite take out. We try to stick to whole food and prepare all meals as fresh as we can. Now that can be a challenge where we live.
Today's lunch I decided to use some Avocados and make some Guacamole Acadian Style. The Acadian part just means not to be too particular and use what you have and don't waste.
First pic of what I cut from 3 Avocados. They were in the fridge for a couple of weeks.
Then I cut some Red Onion
Some tomatoes
Bell pepper, lime, lemon and LaGrille spices. Sure would be nice to have fresh lime and lemon but I have my price limit. Makes no sense to over pay because it sends the wrong message to your provider.
And now the chips. Sometimes I find bags of taco chips with smaller pieces. Not sure how that happens. #lolz I often place the broken chips in a bowl and crush more with it and the top it with my homemade Quac
Well there you go, a simple process to make a healthy meal without overspending. Am I #alive or what? Plus, this traffic exchange community may just help promote this page and viola, I may actually earn some tokens.
I encourage someone else to start their own blog on #pept and see how the traffic exchange community responds. I find a lot of value in demonstrating courage and trying something new. I don't mean trying something that is mostly from the mind of someone else. I mean something from your own heart. Start with an idea from what you do and like everyday. Like I did. I like to eat everyday. And, if you noticed, you can strategically place tags in your story and it becomes like a beacon of hope. #fun or not?
Now I will share this post on #ctpx Xplore while I review other hive member shares, maybe pickup some more #ctp tokens. Plus, I will create an ad campaign on ePayTraffic. I will do the same for newly created blogs.
Bonus For Posting your own blog on #pept community.
100 views on ePayTraffic and 100 views on ctpx
And....don't forget about the organic traffic that comes from these ad campaigns. A topic for another day.
Just came across a good read by @gloriaolar about being frugal and not cheap.

Hello, Jack. I love your visual presentation of your table with the avocados, onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, and the lemon juice with the chips! It looks so delicious. YOu have such an ingenious idea here comparing how you make your guacamole with what you have to doing the work on Traffic exchanges, CTPX, and the tags! I was never very good with tags but getting the idea so much better now and I do understand it. I just forget about tags. They are so important!
Thank you so much for this lesson today Jack! Barb :) @fjworld !BBH !CTP
