			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://hazenchristensen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/themarshmallowtest-300x224.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-745" title="themarshmallowtest-300x224" src="http://hazenchristensen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/themarshmallowtest-300x224.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="224" /></a></p>
<p>A lot of people can’t stand waiting to fulfill their desires. They want it now, and they want it delivered. We have groomed ourselves to be this way. We live in fast food nation, where you place a call and get a hot pizza in 20 minutes delivered right to your door. The problem is that instant gratification rarely ever leads to outstanding results. You are never going to get 5 star steak delivered to your door in twenty minutes and it taste like it does at the restaurant.</p>
<p>There are no overnight successes in the real world. It takes years of work to truly get where you want to go. Most people can’t stand waiting or putting in the work to get there. It’s probably why most people don’t realize their dreams. They trade security and instant results with these things called jobs, rather than working hard and waiting for potential big wins by following their dreams. I love this video. It’s a study that was done about gratification. Kids were given a choice, they could eat one marshmallow now, or if they waited until the lady returned they could get two. Just by waiting only a few minutes, they could double their rewards! Watch how hard it is for these kids to wait.</p>
<p><strong>Is it really that bad to work hard for a few years so that you can be permanently lazy if you choose to be? If you dedicated just 3-5 years of your life towards your dreams and realized them, would it worth it to you? Personally, I’d trade 5 years in order to get everything I want, rather than get mediocre results now for the rest of my life.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-520" title="snake - caughtfish" src="http://hazenchristensen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/snake-caughtfish-300x225.jpg" alt="snake - caughtfish" width="300" height="225" />Snatch?  It makes sense now that you see the picture right?  It&#8217;s all about opportunities.  They are all around us all the time.  We just have to be aware of them and open our minds and be ready to pounce.</p>
<p>Are you aware?  Do you know how to become aware?  Here&#8217;s another concept of &#8220;Snatch&#8221; &#8212; Timing&#8230; did you know that timing is everything.  One second to slow&#8230; too fast&#8230; you might miss the fish? I work with some very talented business owners down in Sarasota Florida.  We are always talking about moving the football&#8230;. no matter what we do&#8230; did we move the football up or down&#8230; Progress is like that.  Sometimes you step back to move ahead &#8212; it&#8217;s all in the timing and perspective of the situation.</p>
<p>In today&#8217;s economy&#8230; I don&#8217;t hear people scoffing at opportunities as much as they used to.  I wonder why that is?  In the movie, &#8220;The Legend of Bagger Vance&#8221; &#8211; Matt Damon talks to the young man, Hardy, who is his caddy &#8211; about his father sweeping the streets and beating back adversity with a broom.  He did whatever he had to&#8230;. whatever it would take&#8230; to provide for his family.</p>
<p>Donald Trump, Robert Kiyosaki, Dale Calvert, Candi May and myself, Hazen Christensen &#8212; in case you have already forgotten&#8230; <img src='http://hazenchristensen.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  &#8211; Are all major proponents of Network Marketing &#8211; Legit network marketing companies.  How do you tell the difference?  Ask&#8230;. it&#8217;s that simple.</p>
<p>Something to think about and remember &#8211; the numbers have gone up on this in America&#8230; but did you know that 80 percent or more of bankruptcies in this country could be stopped if a family could earn an extra $700 a month?  WOW&#8230;. that&#8217;s all I have to say.  Network Marketing can fill that gap for any family.  It takes a a little or a lot of effort depending on your goals and it absolutely doable.  The tax deductions alone on a home based business more than pay for the business in most cases and with some very simple steps.</p>
<p>Perceptions are changing and it&#8217;s a new world out there for businesses.  Most major companies already sell their products and services through network marketing companies.   Did you know that? ATT, Microsoft, Dell, Ford &#8212; you name it.  Why?  Cause it&#8217;s based on word of mouth advertising and paying people for production as it happens&#8230;. that&#8217;s brilliant as a business owner.  I have been very successful in traditional business and network marketing and I am proud of that fact.  They are basically the same thing&#8230; and&#8230; it&#8217;s all about helping people solve problems.</p>
<p>If you or anyone you know would like to get more than curious about making a real income with a legit company &#8211; you should contact me as soon as possible.  Just know&#8230; it&#8217;s not a job and I am not looking for the curious&#8230; I am only looking for the serious.</p>
<p>Just remember &#8212;- you have to SNATCH up opportunities when they come around and remember the key factor of timing&#8230; it&#8217;s oh so important.</p>
