If you were lucky as a child, you had the experience of playing with LEGOs. I know there’s many a parent out there who had the unlucky experience of doing the LEGO dance in the middle of the night having stepped on one of their child’s lovingly misplaced blocks. Hours of building, inventing, creating, and followed by the ultimate joy of destroying and starting over again. Those tiny little blocks can also be a vivid representation of the steps and pain that a business owner can experience when starting or operating a business, no matter what the industry.
Everyone knows the basics of building is simple: First, you have to have a strong base. No project has ever been successful if you start out with just one or two small blocks at the bottom. Strong sturdy foundations coupled with being thorough in how well the blocks are put together help strengthen the overall structure of the project. The same is ideally true for when building a business.
