When a random number generator shows a significant change in its randomness after a significant event occurs that plays on many minds, like 9/11 for instance, and this sort of change continually occurs soon after significant events occur, there is indication that our minds are attached to the world around us and have a small but perceptible effect on it.
We are more aware of things at a deeper level than we are conscious of. Potentials are based on intention/expectation. We can never know something unless enough of us believe it exists or at least can imagine it and we go looking for it. Belief and imagination are grounded in a system of logic that is shared by those who partake in an experience. The universe and our ability to share it requires this. Subsets of reality can involve beliefs/expectations/intentions that those not involved do not hold. Planets in our solar system came into being out of necessity to comply with the theories. They were imagined first, then looked for and finally discovered. The blind man can learn to hit the ball when he learns to use other logic systems than that required in the use of sight.

They say that great truths are great because they're true on many levels, that is they're deep metaphors that can be practically applied in many situations.
Potentials are based on intention/expectation.
When you see someone do something great, and seek to elevate yourself to that level one must intend and expect to be able to move in that direction, I cannot see evidence to the contrary.

Or we discover it by accident, or sometimes it takes the ball hitting you in the head to realize its there. The proverbial nail in the head.

Which experience is the grounds for that logic. I used to think the Phenomenological reduction was the way to see things clearly, I'm not so sure any more. I'm starting to agree more and more with Diogenes. The practical method is best, the simple but challenging is the most interesting.
Planets in our solar system came into being out of necessity to comply with the theories.
We saw planets first, wondered what they were and saw they agreed with formulas derived from observation. Just like we learned to cry before we learned to ask for food.
Learning is both the most frustrating and incredible aspect of our species. When you're motivated, when you have emotional content involved in your education, when you feel the lessons, is when you learn the best.
When I was learning to work on cars, I always loved the teacher showing us the theory put into practice, I'm a complete idiot when it comes to electrical, but I learned because of the way it was presented, it was a practical example I could apply.

You wouldn't know what you're looking at or what hit you unless you first had some inkling of an idea about it and it fit within the worldview you've already adopted.
saw they agreed with formulas derived from observation
The formulas were created to satisfy the observations in the first place. It's logical predictability that matters. The formulas were based on observations first, which led to theories based on the inclusion of other observations, and these theories, as they were developed further, required that certain planets must exist that were never seen until they went looking for them in order to satisfy the theories.
The neutrino and the planet Neptune are cases in point.
Enrico Fermi first postulated the existence of the neutrino in order to explain the otherwise unexpected behavior that takes place when a neutron has been split into its component electron and proton parts. Rather than go back and reassess years of scientific law and theory and its ever-growing body of supporting evidence, a new piece of physical reality was essentially created in order to explain the unexpected phenomenon encountered. You could say that this postulation of Fermi’s was given enough positive consideration of thought over a long enough period of time that more evidence of it eventually began to arise, until it was eventually physically discovered and became established as an absolute of reality.
In the same way, the planet Neptune was first expected to exist before it was eventually discovered. It was the necessity for the planet’s existence in order to uphold previous understandings that led to a search for it, and the search eventually found what it was looking for. Had we not expected it and thus been prompted to look for it, we would not believe that it was out there, and it may as well not be.
You wouldn't know what you're looking at or what hit you unless you first had some inkling of an idea about it and it fit within the worldview you've already adopted.
Now we're getting into archetypes of human perception which is even deeper, and more occult.
It's predictability that matters.
In a way yes, in a way a certain amount of intuition exists, at least if you want to hit the ball correctly. At least if we're still using that metaphor.
Had we not expected it
Expecting specifics! Doesn't that fly in the face of quantum mechanics? Or maybe that's the ideal you try to approximate?
Hah I like this, in which way can we be quantum mechanics? Like when you can just eye out some salt for your soup, you've made the measurements, increased the senses involved with measuring salt to the point the measuring instruments are no longer necessary. You've made a quantum map in your mind and there's no expectation involved, the specifics just happen. It's like you're using the measuring instruments without using them, you've incorporated them into your being.
