The moving forward comes later after the thought formation. You can do anything! Attempt to move forward or just sit still (these are m.e.t.a.p.h.o.r.s) and the thought will come (or not) regardless. You know when you're struggling to remember something and it's really annoying? As soon as you forget about it you remember. In the same way ideas can occur without expressly 'doing' something. They don't JUST come when you're idle, but they CAN come without movement.

I hope this explains it.
