I used to think that if I concentrated hard enough on a star, I could make whatever I wanted come true. I stared at a star for ten minutes, thinking, "Make my house turn into a mansion, make my house turn into a mansion!" and preceded to glare at my house for half an hour. Unfortunately my house did NOT turn into a mansion and I stopped believing stars had powers ever since.
