Science says something about the act of observation it self can change the outcome of an experiment. This is why we can see it from time to time but can't really test it.
It's a big stretch to go from observer based wave function collapse in a QM double slit experiment and "If you believe strongly enough then it may be possible to change reality with will alone." Not to mention that 'observer' doesn't necessarily entail consciousness. I recommend caution with this reasoning as it comes across as dangerously close to a Chopraesque interpretation of QM.
