Truly, when mixed with definite of purporse, desire and persistance it translates any thought to the physical world. As the famous line goes "what the mind can conceive it can achieve". It reminds me of the tower of Babel, that when men put their thoughts together in definite of purpose(in unity), nothing can stop them. Quoting from the bible, God said,"....If as one people all sharing a common languagethey have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be beyond them...." (gen 11:6) God seem to know that they will succeed in building a tower with its top in heavens....
However, our thoughts are also double edged. Whatever our thoughts are :- Good or Bad, it will translate out to our physical being. Our mouth speaks from the abundant of our heart. Paul remind us to keep" whatever that is good, whatever that is noble..." in our minds at all time. It you keep thinking that you're going to hit the wrong note in your solo, guess what, chances are you will be doing it.
I like how henry ford puts it" whether you think you can or you can't, you're right". It reminds me that we usually don't see things as it is present to us in reality. We see it filter through our perception and past memories, mixed with our past experiences and spiced up by our emotions. We see what we are searching for.

Paraphrased "Everything is permissible by God, but not everything is good" taken in 2 context.. 1 Cor 6 & 1 Cor 10
About Sexual Immorality and Believer's Freedom. Both involves the same thing, thoughts...
What you think, you can make it happen (according to the laws of science) can also happen in the spiritual realm that only impacts yourself and others spiritually.
1 Cor 10:24 takes a step further "Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others" Therefore our thoughts should be in view of others. So what is good for others should also be good for ourselves? Don't ya think so?
