Because I Said So…
Feb 1st, 2009 | By Larry Hochman | Category: Inspiration/MotivationSome parents convince their young children they have supernatural powers - or at least try to…
“Eat your broccoli.”
“Why?”
“Because I Said So!”
“Clean your room.”
“Why?”
Because I Said So!!”
“Do your homework.”
“Why??”
“BECAUSE I SAID SO!!!”

These parents want to be omnipotent in their kids’ worlds. They want to speak their words into existence. They want the word to become law.
And sometimes it does. For some, obeying parents without any hesitation is based on fear.
And for others it’s based on complete dependence on the guidance of a mother or father, or both.
And sometimes it’s based on complete trust, love, honor and respect for the person who tells you what to do.

It can be easy or hard to speak your will into another person. Usually it’s impossible unless it’s a dependent child.
(And if it’s someone other than a dependent child, ask yourself if you really want that kind of power over another.)

Now let’s get to the meat and potatoes of the matter…
How good are you at speaking YOUR OWN WORDS into existence?
It goes back to the authority and confidence you used when speaking your will into someone else. You had every expectation they would obey…
because you had a complete sense of control and power.
AND (my point)…if you have a sense of control and power over your own life, you find you can speak your own reality into existence.

“I will attract $20,000 into my checking account this week…because I said so.”
“I will manifest my best time ever running five miles…because I said so.”
“I will create the perfect vacation for my spouse and me, including a great experience for the kids (apart from us)…because I said so.”
There are people who do this as on an everyday basis. Some are famous - such as Donald Trump, Hugh Hefner, etc.
Some are underground, quietly living the life of their dreams.They have a partnership with the Universe. It’s as if they’re the parent and the forces around them have such love and regard, they arrange great things for them.
And there are many who have partially mastered this skill and have created wonderful life situations. They’re on their way to achieving that same relationship and having a great time in the process.I’m one of those very people! ![]()

Where are you on the “Because I Said So” spectrum? Do you have the power to shape worlds? Do you have no influence on anyone or anything? Which end of the equation are you closer to?
And…are you interested in figuring out the process of making miracles in your own life…because YOU SAID SO???
Here are five things you can do this very moment to start speaking your words into existence…
1. Commit to one “Because I Said So” for starters. We tend to bombard ourselves with words and intentions. We mean them when we say them, but have a hard time keeping up. Quality is much better than quality. It lays the foundation for everything that comes after.
2. Create an intention, then get quiet. Let it sink in to your consciousness. Write it out or speak it out loud if you like. Then let it be.
3. Get underneath other people’s intentions. There’s nothing like good energy coming back to you after you’ve been there for others. Celebrate the success of those who speak their words into existence.
4. Accept help. It’s your birthright. We’re humans. We communicate with and support each other. Join a community that is moving in your direction.
5. (As my friend Rich German says) focus on the BEING of your intention. Don’t create from a state of hyper-activity. Become the person who has the FEELING of the thing you want. The people, resources and things you’re supposed to do will show up. Then let them in.
P.S. The Universe is your partner, not your servant. You have control over who you become. The Universe has control over how you get there.
