I see so many people stuck in their dreary dead end jobs, no security, n0 back up plans, nothing to look forward to.  They are on the road to nowhere…. ending up with nothing…. Sometimes…. EVEN if they have a little something to look forward to… they are still living quiet lives of desperation… that could be you or someone you know right now!

What can ya do about it?  Well… find another road! hahaha… It’s really the answer to everything… when one door closes… look for an open door.  Opportunities don’t go away… they just go to someone else who’s ready to POUNCE on them… ARE you ready?

Minds are like parachutes — they work best when open.  Don’t discount something you don’t understand or an opportunity because it’s not the NORM…. quick FYI – the NORM IS BROKEN.  Did you get that?  THE NORM IS BROKEN. I hope I don’t have to say it again…. You want some SOUND financial advice…. you better find a side business and you better find it quick. I have such a business and if you are interested in creating another $500 a month or tons more…. you can MSG me right here.

If you like sitting / laying on the couch – then I can guess your income within $5000.  You will rise to the level of the top 5 people you hang around the most.    ~Hazen Christensen

More than ever, we are championing the cause of the “SPARE INCOME”. In today’s perilous financial times more people need a spare income, especially when you consider all the things and people that depend on it.

Whether you realize it or not… owning a business from home is a tremendous “spare income” opportunity for you and other people you know, love, and care about.  The trick is finding a business that is at least 5 years old and backed by a billion plus dollar company…. Why is that?  It’s because: (first and foremost – you want stability)

1) It compliments what you and others are already doing and will continue to do… consume products and everyone.

2) Even if you don’t make a tremendous amount of income at first, if you are at least in an attempt to make a profit, your tax advantages alone should pay for your business.

3) It’s a business that YOU own.  You can begin building your “dream” rather than continue building someone else’s.  The sad truth about our business is if most people worked this business like they worked their JOB, they would have everything they wanted and more.  No question.

4) It creates leveraged and residual income like no other.  The wealthiest 1% of Americans use leveraged and residual income to create wealth.  The problem for most folks is that it usually takes a lot of money just to get in the game that the wealthiest 1% play.  For the business we are talking about here – $49 – $499 and $49 – $250 /mo.   With this type of business – you will see the benefits sooner than later I assure you!  Most people judge this business based on what it cost to join rather than what is possible to earn.  If you think something is worthwhile… it is…. if you think something is garbage… it is… The store, “Another man’s treasure” is proof of that—– either way, YOU’RE RIGHT!  Want more information, call this 4 minute pre-recorded message at 507-726-3700.

“Every day I wake up looking for someone who is looking for me.”

It’s called taking responsibility – placing blame never helped anyone do anything!  EVER… Is life fair?  Do bad things happen to good people?  Do businesses fail?  Do stocks go up and down at the wrong times!! ??   YES… Why fight it…. the only answer out there for you is summed up here: DO YOUR BEST all the time!  ALL THE TIME.

I heard a great story over 13 years ago and I will never forget it….

The speaker is asking a crowd about running a 6 minute mile and who can do it… only a few raise their hands and the rest – sweat – just thinking about it…

Speaker continues and asks the crowd about running a 6 minute mile with a reward of $1,000,000 and almost everyone raises their hands because they want that $1,000,000 reward for running a simple 6 minute mile.

Speaker narrates the start of the run and how it’s so easy!!!  I mean – $1,000,000 — you can pay off all your bills, house, car – get a boat… etc… WOW – $1,000,000 !!!!!!  WooooHoooo!!!!

Speaker narrates the 2nd lap and it’s starting to wear on ya… I mean…. you haven’t done this in a while… or ever… hahahaha… Whew… BUT $1,000,000!!!!  WOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!  I am gonna get what I always wanted — I am gonna tour around Europe…. I am gonna be a ROCK star!!!

Speaker narrates the end of the 3rd lap – start of the 4th lap…. WOW… your lungs are on fire… your legs are part of the jello family… you are starting to get sick… and your hands go up in the air halfway around the last lap and you say out loud!!!  $1,000,000!!!!! ….. WHO NEEDS IT?????   WHO TALKED ME INTO THIS THING ANYWAY?? I mean – you were happy before without a lot of money…. Macy’s can wait to get paid… Your house is still there…. RIGHT???

CRAZY right??? Does this mentality fit into your life or someone’s life that you know?  ………… The truth is… you never had the $1,000,000 to begin with… it’s not like you won the Superbowl ring and then someone took it away… YOU never had it to lose… It’s EASY to throw in the towel when you haven’t accomplished something first…it’s just like all your goals and dreams… all your life… you have let them slip away because they weren’t tangible…. weren’t real enough…. the reward wasn’t real enough or BIG enough…

Now… here is something to think about…. what if it was your family on the line?  What if you HAD to perform in order to save them?  Is that a big enough WHY?  A big enough REWARD?  The truth is —- that’s happening every day out there.  People are living lives of quiet desperation and literally can’t see their way out of it.  Isn’t it time to make some changes?  Inspire others to do something more!!??  It’s inside all of us to have massive success… We just have to get OUT of our OWN way long enough to let it happen!

Thank you all for reading!!!

you decide to quit and curl up in a ball and cry

throw out those lemons and wish for limes to use in your Corona

Everyone out there thought I was going to say the whole lemonade thing… but I’m really not that optimistic.   I’m a reasonable pessimist in disguise.  You have to be these days… it’s the whole if you don’t stand for something… you will fall for anything… right?

I have talked to a lot of people lately whose lives seem to be one giant lemon right now… and it reminds me of something my best friend’s dad used to say – “It’s not what happens to ya that matters….. it’s all about how you handle it.”  That is really huge when you think about it… because life is all about ATTITUDE.

Life has a way of setting up road blocks and brick walls to get in our way and sometimes those obstacles are made of flesh… meaning people… Yes… people around you.  Sometimes… the lemons in your life ARE THE PEOPLE you surround yourself with on a daily basis.

I say… if you want to improve your life… get out there and improve the people you spend all your time with on a day to day basis.  Get around like minded people that want more from life— whether that is religion, money, success, love, etc… whatever you want… hang around with people that want what you want and you life will turn around magically…. it’s all about how you look at the things happening around you….

So, what the hell are ya gonna do with all those lemons?  I don’t know… make some lemonade… hahahaha

Look at the great innovations, revolutionary ideas or talent from our history and you will find one commonality: they were all discouraged or ridiculed in some form or another before they became a success. Not one had the red carpet rolled out for them with a parade of fans encouraging them to go on. They all faced opposition and were often attacked. (Ask any entrepreneur, they all have their “you’ll never be able to” story.) Why do people do this? Fear. Fear of uncertainty. Fear of change. Fear of the unknown. Fear of a shift in power or relationships with insecurities.  Fear.

Get used to it. People will fear our genius. Those who are our world’s creators, that bring forth new ideas and push the envelope with their talents or ideas need to realize that society fears them. Why? In my opinion, because they were too weak or mediocre to pursue their own talents. So they attack others in this messed up sense of justification to make them feel better about themselves.

The sad truth is that many walk away from ideas or talents simply because others have discouraged it. They are not strong enough in their own convictions to see the fear behind the discouragement. They can’t see the underlying envy and jealousy. Why would you walk away because of a silly reason like a little discouragement? If you succeed, that changes things with those around you. They either can change with it or stay the same. The balance of power changes, then in order to justify it in their own minds that they are ok where they are, they attack others. Whether they admit it or not, they downplay other’s talent because of their own selfish reasons.

Don’t sacrifice your talents and dreams simply because someone (who was mediocre in their own pursuits) disagreed with you or discouraged your passion. Do you think our history’s greats were worried about opinions of mediocre minds or efforts? No they were too concerned with what did matter: their creations on their path to greatness. Are you afraid of looking like a fool? What will really make you look foolish is if you become one of the attackers and start justifying yourself for where you are.

If we all waited around to get approval from people in life, nothing would ever get done. Unknown

“Some people are leaders vs. followers, some hunters vs. farmers, some creators vs. users. If you want to be a leader, hunter, creator, you must learn to be an individual. Let the followers, farmers and users join the collective.” MQ

That’s a life lesson within itself…. do what others aren’t willing to do in order to get what others can’t get.

About the movie – Dreamer… This is the story of a young girl and family who have been hit with hard times on a once great horse farm in Kentucky.  It’s about bringing a family together through rough patches in life.  It’s about an injured racehorse named Sonador and how that horse helps a family in every way possible.

I have another connection to this movie because I owned a small horse farm in Georgetown, Ky and was an extra and stand in on this production.  I had the pleasure of meeting Dakota Fanning, Kurt Russell, Kris Kristofferson, Elizabeth Shue, Luis Guzman and Freddy Rodriguez in Lexington a week prior to the main shoot. If you watch the movie 26:45 in — I am Mike the trainer that takes the horse from Freddy on the track with Dakota sitting on the fence.  I am scattered throughout the film in other places but that’s the scene I remember the time.

Is this a big deal?  No… I just think its fun and I was able to meet everyone and actually talk to the actors / actresses.  If you ever have a chance to be a part of a movie… I think you would enjoy it.

If you haven’t seen the movie… rent it. Listen to the message… and go for it.

This is a powerful video with facts about the world today and where we fit into that world. We need to start paying attention to the internet and how to make more money or side money using the greatest connection tool ever created.

Imagine walking into a bank, cash everywhere, free for the taking. That’s the Internet!!  It’s all about location, location, location…. and there is NOT a better location than the internet!

That being said…. I have a question for everyone out there, “If it were possible to earn a 6 figure income, your FIRST year in business marketing a new health care line from an award winning Doctor, would it be worth a half  hour of your time to see if you qualify?” What would you say?

There is a video circulating on YOUTUBE right now and the internet is expanding like crazy —- meaning…. that’s a great place to be in business right now. I am looking for strong sales people and motivated learners. Money flows to people that are constantly changing and learning… if you stop learning — money will flow to everyone but you!

There are plenty of success stories out there…. like youtube, facebook, fark, twitter, ning, flickr etc etc etc…. the age of the internet is here.  Gen Y is going to be bigger than the Baby Boomers this year!! 201o is full of great promise for everyone that is willing to go after it.

Think about this video. Think about your financial future. Email me: hazen@hazenchristensen.com

To get from point A to point B – you really need to know the alphabet….  Life doesn’t come with an instruction book but we need reference points to figure things out. SO – the big question is – where are you?  Do you know where you are starting from?  Do you know where you want to go?  Do you like your job?  Would you like better hours?  Would you like more tax deductions?  Would you like to make more money?  YES …. everyone says yes… and why wouldn’t they?  I would say yes…. who isn’t looking for ways to do all those things?

I am a firm believer in network marketing and mlm companies for building businesses.  I know very wealthy people all over the country that literally tell their kids they have to join an MLM and build it up to a certain level. They have to run it like a business…. help people… and make a profit.  Their kids learn the the ropes with a minimal investment into the legitimate world of networking marketing.  Here is a great company to view: Visalus Sciences Killer health and wellness benefits and the doctors behind the companies are even better.  NOW — why would these masters of industry have their kids join these companies?  To quote a friend of mine, “Because I want my kids to be able to run a company before they take over for me!”   WOW… that’s a powerful statement for the industry.  I have performed well in this industry because I like to help people and I know how to build a successful team.  I am currently working with the two companies I mentioned before.  They are new… and very powerful for income production and I KNOW what it takes in this industry.  Donald Trump, Robert Kiyosaki and Warren Buffet are all major backers of the network marketing industry…. do you know more than they do?  What are we all missing out on?

I am attaching a video here that almost says it all…. Al Pacino in the movie Any Given Sunday – speech about inches.

It’s simple….. You have to know where you are…. to get where you want to go.  You have to realize it’s a game of inches.  You have to realize it’s not easy but easier than anything you have done before.  Success is easier than failure.  You have to go for it…. why not?

I absolutely love this video. It’s an ad from Apple way back in 1997. I thought that it basically summed up my readers better than anything else. I just appeared with 2 clients / friends on the new Cookalong Live Show with famous Chef, Gordon Ramsey.  He is eccentric, different and knows his stuff.  He is a showman and is now teaching people how to cook from home – LIVE – on Fox.  Some people think he is crazy…. I applaud him.  Read more below…

Here is the text version:

Here’s to the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They’re not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They push the human race forward.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones,
We see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think
they can change the world,
Are the ones who do.

So here is a toast to you, readers. You are the imaginative, the creative, the mentally and physically strong, the innovators, the revolutionaries and the creators that push our world forward. Keep on following your hearts and passions. Keep on in your pursuit to build something incredible to give to the world. Show the world who you are and what you are made of.

Put a bullet through the forehead of mediocrity.
