A lot of what we can think or thought about turns out to be our reality. Of course I am not saying if we continue to think of some scifi fantasy it would become reality in a day or two.
What I am trying to say is that our thoughts often affect our present and it affects our actions such that it affects the future. This means we can be miserable or happy in the future based on current actions that we take in our life.

So how does watching our thoughts would help with that?
Let's take an example of bad eating habits.
You eat some junk food every day and drink coffee to top it off. Do this for a year and two. And this habit would pile up to turn out into a root cause to some health disorder.
Now you noticed this didn't happened in a day or two. It requires a lot of thoughts and the habits that lead to the final outcome. And in order for this to happen your mind to has ignored the thoughts and habits.
How it comes from a thought?
So you think of eating a junk food. You will tell yourself. What could go wrong if I just had it for a day or two? What could happen if you had it for a change. And make this a habit every day for entire month. Then that becomes a part of the routine.
This all started with a thought.
What could go wrong if I just had it once
And from there onwards it just snowballs into another event and it becomes habit and then turns out to be domino effect towards plenty of other things that are meant to happen.
This is the reason you have to learn to watch your thoughts. Make sure to pay attention to every thought that could go wrong.
Watch your thoughts.
