Angela Vassallo reflects on her journey in business, emphasizing the importance of becoming intentional. Initially, she admits to being uncertain and scattered, lacking clear goals and focus. However, through the influence of Oprah and Gary Zukav's teachings on intention, she recognized the need to create a vision, set daily goals, and stay focused amidst distractions.

She highlights the significance of discipline and accountability in maintaining focus, suggesting that having a mentor or being part of a business group can enhance productivity.

By cultivating this skill, she believes individuals can significantly set themselves apart and achieve long-term success. Discover how your intention will give you an edge and an advantage over everyone else.

Angela Vassallo recently shared insights from her journey of building and selling Vasco's Chargrill Chicken, a business she developed over six years. Initially, she had no experience in the hospitality industry and was hesitant to start the venture. However, her determination to "figure it out" despite not having all the answers enabled her to overcome challenges and build a successful brand.

One key lesson Angela emphasized is the importance of adopting a mindset that embraces uncertainty and the willingness to learn. She encouraged aspiring entrepreneurs to not let a lack of initial knowledge hold them back. By seeking advice, leveraging available resources, and persisting through failures, one can navigate the unknown and achieve their goals.
