"Intent, or thought without action, is not enough. 

But as you open your mouth to speak, as you put forth your leg to walk, as you pry open the pages of any book to read, these physical gestures overwhelmingly imply that you believe your intent will be matched with results. 

All this adds to the energy of your initial thought sufficiently enough that a tipping point is reached; critical mass is achieved, allowing the Universe to grab the baton and take over, all for the seemingly feeble actions we initiate. 

You don't even have to know how to complete the processes started, yet starting the process clearly demonstrates a belief that it will somehow be completed. 

The original intent (vision, desire, dream), bolstered by the expectation and empowered because of the action that follows, is sufficient to cause the necessary articulation, muscle movements, and idea formulations invoked by life's magic via the thoughts become things principle for there to be the corresponding manifestation."

--from Infinite Possibilities by Mike Dooley
