Actually it goes far beyond your own speech and acts. Everything that has ever happened in the universe, as far as you are aware of it, has also happened in your head.

For there is nothing about the universe that you know or are aware of or understand, which is not knowledge, awareness or understanding. That is to say, processes of your own mind.

Intention, IMO, is saying that you are the one who makes the model and you can change any of it according to your will.
That assumes that your conscious will is all-powerful. I don't know about yours, but mine isn't. IMO, there are definitely numerous practical limits to LOA, and those limits, obviously relate to your ability to change yur thoughts and beliefs.
