| Guest post by: Lynda-Ross Vega |
Article Overview: Building the core of a business is essential, but not always easy to do. Helping an entrepreneur to understand her role as the core of her company is important, and here, we explain the reasons why building a business around the core – yourself – is so crucial. In fact, that strong core leads to empowering all other aspects of business!

Getting to the Middle of it: Building a Business From its Core
Just as in the human body, the strength of a business comes
from its core. A strong core facilitates growth and endurance, and in business,
that growth equals success, and that endurance equals longevity. Naturally, a
successful, long-living business is what we all want and strive for!
You are the core of your business. You are its strength, its
heartbeat, its reason for being. As its core, your strength comes from understanding your skills
and talents and applying them in everything you do. That’s where we come in. We
call it strengths-based business building – a process of helping you develop
your natural entrepreneurial skills.
Imagine the core of your business becoming as strong as the
core of your body: the muscles that provide you with power and stability are
essential in everything you do. As the
core of your business, you are just as essential to its success as those
muscles are to your body. You are the reason for your business’s success, and
it is only as strong as you are.
Understanding that you are at the core of your business is
the easy part; the challenge is making sure that the core is as strong as it
needs to be for your business to succeed. The technique of strengths-based business
building involves accentuating the your strengths, and those of your team, the
two most essential parts of your business.
Your strengths – your talents, abilities, ideas and skills –
are what we call your “genius,” and as a business owner, you want and need your
“genius” to come first. That’s what
differentiates you in the market place;
that’s why your clients seek you out.
It’s a waste of your time and talent for you to focus on mastering parts
of your business that are not based on your natural strengths. You want to do (and should do) what you love
to do, what you’re good at doing. We help the rest fall into place by showing
you what skills your team members must have that compliment
you and keep the core of your business strong and vibrant.
Building a business around its core, around you, is essential and easy with the
right tools. Our guaranteed system combines science and psychology, and while
we’ve done the hard part of creating this approach, it’s now your turn to do
the easy part and let us help you implement it.

Type of business with building
- If you owned a building and Wal-Mart was opening its doors across the street in a previously unoccupied area (along with 12-14 small shops), what type of business would you start?
Here are the considerations:
1. Money is a non-factor
2. Building is fairly large (10,000) square feet
3. Building is on the corner of a busy intersection (about to get much busier)

Re: What or Who Sparks Your Business Interest
- What wonderful stories. I am sure you are inspiring many others by sharing them.
For me, I think I had a bit of everything going on. Middle child, hard working parents who never seemed to get any where. I was determined to do right.
I've made my share of mistakes but knowing that I am building a company that provides jobs for others, and perhaps a legacy that my children will get involved in...that sparks for me.
thank you all for sharing
