Just to clarify, I don't imagine he's against the idea that thoughts CAN produce results on their own.

But my understanding is that he says thoughts don't
usually generate meaningful things on their own, without action. I was careful to include that U word and I probably should have emphasized it more before. He's a big advocate of hard work, doing what needs to be done. And I think you would agree too that, at least for most people, that a lot of action is
usually required to do amazing things. For example, Steve's web site didn't build itself! It took great thoughts for Steve to do his site, but it also took a lot of hours writing, planning, etc.
This is also from one of Brian Tracy's books:

The bestselling book by Rhonda Byrne, The Secret, talks about the powerful effects of visualizing success and activating the Law of Attraction. But many people are finding out that just thinking about what they want, while it’s a good start, isn’t enough. In Flight Plan, Brian Tracy reveals the real keys to accomplishing any long-term, meaningful success.
