Thoughts become things...good or bad.

As soon as I read the OP, I knew it was only a matter of time until someone predictably suggested what you suggested.

Lots of people purchase a baseball bat or a gun or a can of pepper spray for self-defense "just in case." Very few of these people, if any, ever actually have to use the self-defense item they purchased.

There are infinite other examples I could use.

Thinking about something does not make it happen. Life is not that simple.

As for those who promote "the secret" and "like attracts like," etc. and so forth, kindly travel to Africa and explain to the starving children that the reason they're starving is because they aren't visualizing and thinking about a big plate of roast beef, mashed potatoes, and gravy.
