Great Attitude: Links

Posted in Start Up Tips on February 14, 2011 by conceptadz

Great attitude…you just can’t downplay this in anything you get yourself into, if not you will  just keep getting in and out of stuff without achieving much, just because you couldn’t keep up the right attitude to stick it out long enough. You are sure to get discouraged from time to time, but you need to seek out encouraging inputs for your business and life’s issues. So for me: besides audios, books and videos I use to boost confidence, I also came across these sites that contributed a lot to daily ways to lift my spirit. I am sharing them with you here:

http://scienceofgettingrich.net/ : download and read very good ebooks on this site and learn how your thought pattern and attitude contribute to results you get daily. There is actually a book called The Science of Getting Rich that can be downloaded on the site.

http://www.psalmsandaffirmations.com/ : Oh this site just gives you the right daily boost and good affirmations to roll over in your mind throughout the day. It is a great daily resource!

Yeah! Live Well O!

Good Alliances/Great Attitude

Posted in Start Up Tips on January 31, 2011 by conceptadz

Been away.Discovering new ideas to help put the word out for us. In the midst of this we found out something we overlooked that really means a lot to our business.

Imagine a doctor for example, PHD and all that;…and there happens to be an official list of doctors in the country, and this guy’s name isn’t there! Why? cause he didn’t think he should submit his name! I’m sure we don’t need to spill all the negative effects of that, and if none, at least the advantages he would miss. That was just a parable anyway. So then:

Fifth Tip: Have you submitted your Business to your country’s Yellow Pages and Business Directories? No? A lot of them are online now, just Google them and submit. It shows credibility and they are amazing backlinks that feature your website and business on Google and other Search Engines. Do this ASAP as there is a lot to gain than lose.

So how’s business so far? Great! Always great! You need to keep the attitude UP! Always. Things of course look horrible sometimes…ok so a lot of times. But this is what gets us through:

LAUGHTER! yes, just laugh, Laughing makes your heart happy. But laughing is more than what we like to do. We need to laugh. Get yourself a comedy or get a joke book. Got one that is so hilarious and clean as well. Shared a joke on my personal blog from the book, you might need to read that and i also made a reference to the Author, in case you want to buy the book.

Read the joke on my blog here:

While waiting…

Posted in Start Up Tips on January 15, 2011 by conceptadz

Now this part can be frustrating…but its the time to go over the PLAN! The PLAN!? You know…the one we are building on? Ok then its time for tip numero 3 and this could very well be Tip 1,2,3,4,5…together in ONE!

  • Third Tip : Put your plan to paper! I’m no genius but even though I do have my times of perspective; I could never have all my plans(goals) in my head especially if you want them fully detailed. Repetition is for emphasis: PUT YOUR PLAN TO PAPER!

When you have it in your Head, that’s that. When you Speak it; you speak and hear. When you See it; you see and have in your head. But when you Write it; you feel it(hands), you see it(eyes), even though your mouth is not moving you can actually hear (ears) yourself speaking it (mouth), you have it in your head and you also now have a reference point (paper). Let me share something with you from a post on another blog of mine that might give you a reason to make hardcopy records of you goals, just indulge me ok?

It was Titled HAPPY NEW YEAR.

So you’ve got resolutions for this year too right? You bet? well not me! Akinzo has only one thing to do this year: CHANGE MY THINKING! You ask why? You’ve heard it over and over again and again. AS A MAN THINKS SO IS HE! Went through some of my old stuff and found some thoughts i had written down a year ago and 9 out of 10 were dead on accurate, from getting a transplant this year, to the home  i live in, to my relationship with Mrs…and guess what? the last one that wasn’t dead on accurate was because i thought of having a car worth at least 1m but after i got one, it got stolen from Mrs at gun point (Glory to God for Life), so we got another. It wasn’t accurate because we got 2 instead of 1. Discovering this, i concentrated my thoughts on something New to try out again! And of course it worked: My company ConceptAdz Concepts  is  LIVE!!! and we are ready to GO! So what am I saying? THINK IT BELIEVE IT AND BE IT…YOU CAN!
if u want some of the materials i came across for study, mail me conceptadzng@gmail.com. I’ll attach some to you. Live well.

So you see: Going back to your Plan shows you how far you have come, how competent you are and most importantly gives u extra drive in the waiting period. You just always know: You can win this! Keep at it!

Patience Now

Things are stalling…just for while. Website waiting for relevant information. Last minute decisions arising from unexpected delays and costs.  But don’t loose it now: the darkest part of the night is morning already! We’ll spend the time appreciating the presumed small achievements like Logo Design, Service Pack Organization, Website Design etc. this keeps you expectant and full of hope. We will get there! Where? our expected end.

Working from Home?

Posted in Start Up Tips on January 12, 2011 by conceptadz

We finally settled for working from home, though we have all necessary office equipment. Costs a whole lot to rent a place for a newly registered biz. Found out lots of companies actually started from home. Why do people keep these info to themselves. How about this then? We, giving regular progress info on ConceptAdz here (including tips and sources) to help and encourage Small Business Startups. Great Idea? Ok then…here we go! So question: what makes you guys think you are going to make it far enough to consider  yourselves an ‘authority’ on ‘advice’ for us? Well …we are not! We will just share with you things that worked and are working for us. Be sure to seek as much information as possible to make yourself a success. So do we begin?

  • First Tip: You need to start your business doing what you are good at and you enjoy. For the following reasons: If you are good at something, TRUST me you are not common. When you enjoy doing something, you do it a lot:PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT. When you combine the two, miraculously information about; and people interested in the same just prop up everywhere, which helps keep you updated and relevant.(happens all the time)
  • Second Tip: You need to see the SUCCESS ahead first, then (don’t try) BELIEVE it, because truly YOU can. Do Your Very Best (be true to yourself though) and keep seeing yourself achieving your envisioned SUCCESS and it will come to be. (5years of Chronic Renal Failure to eventually having a successful Transplant and Living Very Well without Complications? It came to be for me, It will come to be for YOU. I kept believing, which gives strength to believe and trust more).

So you see even though ConceptAdz and YOU are growing together we are sure to get there! As you keep seeing how we are progressing and we keep you posted on privileged opportunities we come across and how we are applying them, try to keep up and make comments: Hey! we are not claiming expertise in every category. But we can encourage with experience (not only in Business). We have 2 tips now and counting. Congratulations

Live Well!
