Episode 322: How Discipline and Consistency Lead to Success with Vickie Velasquez (FS322)

Shownotes: http://fizzleshow.co/322
How do we stay consistent and disciplined in our business? Amidst all the different strategies and business hacks out there, what are some simple ways to build and keep the momentum? How can we do things today, so that the snowball of tomorrow helps itself down the hill?
If we can harness the energy of consistency and discipline, everyday, the long term results are often beyond our wildest dreams! Staying on course on a daily basis can create a sense of self pride and purpose that is hard to find elsewhere. These practices can help clear a path to success and prevent us trudging blindly through the wilderness.
In this episode we talk about how to steer clear of new gimmicky strategies for your business, creating and maintaining momentum and staying present and committed to your goals. We get into why starting with intention, in this regard, can go such a long way and why it is hardest in the beginning.
Today on the show we are joined by Vickie Velasquez from the Vegetarian Zen Podcast and our very own Jen Rao! Our guests help Chase and Aiden unpack stories of discipline and consistency and how they have proved so important in each's journey.
We also talk about how this discussion fits into the next series of shows we are doing, which will provide a refreshed roadmap for you and your work.
*These concepts that we are talking about can be such trustworthy tools in your box of tricks and can ultimately make a world of difference!

For all that and all the usual Fizzle goodness, join us today!
