Good morning !
What are you thinking right now ?
And now ? And what have you been thinking 5 minutes ago ? And what emotions you experienced thinking about that ?
A human being, especially human beings like us - "homo thinking"- thinks always, alot, and often, several thoughts at the same time. Thinks in the past, present and future, about real and unreal, pleasant and unpleasant. For the most part of our lives we live in our heads, in our thoughts.
"Life does not consist mainly--or even largely--
of facts and happenings.
It consists mainly of the storm of thoughts
that is forever blowing through one's mind."
Mark Twain
And all would be well, BUT ...
"Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts."
Soren Kierkegaard
Simply put: everything that we have in life - is a result of what we "thought out".

If you persistently think of something for a long time, it will become real. And it doesn't matter whether it is a blue dream, a fantasy, a philosophic monologue or a fear - it will come true in exactly the same terms you think about it. So it is worth being very careful with the words you use in your thoughts.
That is a fact. If you don't believe in it, it simply means you don't notice it. As soon as I started noticing, how specifically and quickly my thoughts come true, I started to choose wisely,what to let into my thoughts, and what - to filter out due to potential damage.
Latest example from my life. Three days ago I was traveling by bus. It was nighttime, and I was freezing, because I sat by the window, and outside temperature was around zero. Next to me slept my colleague. I sat shivering of cold, longing for my warm ski jacket, that was just 50cm above me, on the luggage shelf. But - totally inaccessible -, because, to get it, I'd have to get up and pull it down, and by this awaken my neighbour and a couple of more people, which I didn't want. So I sat and shivered. At some moment the thoughts about the jacket, that can make me warm, became so intense and real, that... a jacket fell into the isle. :) And a neighbour at the other side of the isle just had to pick it up and give it to me. I didn't even have to get up. Although, I must say, I still awakened my colleague - among other things, I thought, that if I get the jacket, I awaken her. Having omitted the unneeded prepositions, the thought has materialized 100%. :)
"All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve
is the direct result of his own thoughts."
James Allen
Unfortunately, not only positive thoughts materialize themselves, but negative ones too.

It happens, that in discussions with people I think ahead what they might say to me. And often it is something unpleasant for me. And they do say it ! With the very words, that I made up in my head! My own fears in a split of a second offer me a version of events, that triggers my emotions, and I start to believe in this version, and this confidence makes my thoughts come true in material world with the speed of .... thought.

Joseph Joubert
It is a feature of negative thoughts, that can be changed. It is important to understand, that the very same principle works the other way. I.e., if to think emotionally long enough about something pleasant and positive, that hasn't yet happened, it will happen.

Some days ago I asked my son, what he does, when he becomes scared. And he gave me a great technique.
"I switch channels in my head," - he said, " - on the 1st channel I have simply thoughts, as they are. On 2nd - animations, on 3d - secrets, on 4th - dreams..."
And it is indeed so : we can use pleasant memories from my life, seen movies or just my fantasy, to switch from negative to positive and set a base for our new reality.
It is important though, that the thoughts would be so bright, that emotions followed. And when a thought comes down to the heart, the world will set in motion and the thought will be materialized. We can just sit and wait.
