Same idea applies to everything else. It is not really how much of something you have, but how you use what you have. I am guessing that if you end up controlling your "theme" well, you get to impact more and more people. For example, if you are generous and you are truely generous from "inside out", then you'll also end up getting lots of money to use it in the act of being generous. But it doesn't work from outside in. You can't wait until you have lots of money to be generous.
Makes a lot of sense to me. I like the concept behind the "theme" thing because it implies working at a deeper, wider level. I have had some experiences that deeply resonate with his concept.
