Money is an important subject. Almost everyone wants to have enough of it. Many want more. And yet an astonishing number of thoughts revolve around having too little money.

Too expensive. Too little. Out of reach. An image begins to form. And we carry this image with us.

Prosperity begins in the mind. We attract what we focus on. We attract what we hold to be true for ourselves. We attract what we believe. Our convictions become our personal reality.

Spiritual movement creates an impulse from which images arise. These images condense into thoughts, and these thoughts have an effect on the material world. So far, so good. From spiritual movement comes the will, and the will leads to a decision. Every spiritual decision inevitably produces an effect.

This is why people see the world in completely different ways. One sees limitations, another sees possibilities. Where one person sees a problem, another discovers an idea. Where one stops, another begins to think about how it can be done.

Different realities emerge.

Those who focus on scarcity discover scarcity. Those who focus on abundance discover abundance.

And abundance is everywhere. Look at the sea. At a tree full of leaves. At a sky filled with stars. We see growth, movement, creation and change.

Our world is also full of ideas, possibilities and movement. Every day, companies are founded, deals are made, discoveries are made, houses are built, journeys are booked and new projects are started. Unimaginable amounts of money change hands every single day.

Abundance belongs to this world.

What do you want? What exactly is worth striving for in your life?

Will comes from a deeper level. The rational mind can create a long list. A larger home. A particular car. More income. A journey. Greater wealth.

But which of these images stir something within you?

Where do you feel joy? Which life already feels right when you think about it? What truly matters?

Prosperity becomes personal

For one person, it means a home by the sea. For another, the freedom to travel for several months each year. Building a business. Spending time with family. Supporting other people. Creating something lasting. Being free to decide how each day is spent.

Money becomes a tool.

It enables movement, creation, freedom and impact.

And gradually, something concrete emerges from the inner image.

In the Dream Album, this life receives images. Places, experiences, people, possessions and situations become visible. What previously existed only as a feeling takes form. Through written goal setting, thoughts become more concentrated and begin to manifest.

What does this life cost?

Become more specific. Now it gets exciting.

What does the home you want to live in cost? What are the monthly expenses? How much do you need for the journeys you want to experience? What monthly income supports the lifestyle you see before you? What level of wealth creates the freedom you desire? What income should come from a business, investments or other sources of income?

Calculate it as precisely as possible.

“I want more money” becomes a concrete number. The desire for freedom reveals the income required to support this life. Those who want to travel can calculate an annual travel budget. And those who want to give something to other people can define the amount they want to have available for that purpose.

The idea becomes more concrete.

And that changes something.

The desire is the impulse; a clearly defined goal anchors the desired state. This is what makes the PlusX2 tools so valuable. You discover what truly matters to you and develop a mental image of it. Then you visualize it with the Dream Album and manifest it through writing it down in Goal Setting, the Success Journal, the Idea Bank and Project Planning.

Which possibilities will take you there?

This is where the sea of possibilities opens up.

Today, a good idea can reach people all over the world. Knowledge can be shared. Experiences can be passed on. Products, services and digital solutions can be recommended. People can connect with one another and build something together.

Network Marketing and Affiliate Marketing are two of these possibilities. Ancient principles combined with the possibilities of our time.

Abundance begins long before a large number appears in a bank account. It begins with our mental attitude, with simplicity and with living in harmony with the laws of nature. Every cause creates an interaction. We know the law of sowing and reaping.

When you fill your Activities Checklist with the blue, income-generating activities, you are planning your sowing.

And then it is time to get to work.

The inner image gives direction. The numbers provide clarity. The plan provides structure, and action brings movement and execution.

We all have the same foundations for success and prosperity. It is how we use them that makes the difference!

Visualize. Manifest. Experience.

Personal Thoughts of the Author

When we speak about prosperity, spiritual alignment and the Law of Attraction, another question arises: Why is one person born into great prosperity while another begins life under very modest material circumstances?

For me, the answer reaches far beyond the visible circumstances of life.

I see the human being as a spiritual being, created through the will of the Creator and endowed with spiritual power. For me, this perspective is far more than a philosophical idea. It is the result of many years of exploring the spiritual connections of life, my research and the insights I have gained from it. Much of what we know today about consciousness, perception and the interaction between our inner processes and our experience gives us reason to consider these connections far beyond a purely material view of the human being.

At the beginning is spiritual volition.

It expresses itself through the solar plexus and from there exerts pressure upon the cerebellum. In the cerebellum, an image arises from this impulse. This image is passed on to the cerebrum where, in connection with the intellect, it is further condensed. This is how thoughts arise. The thought is then further condensed into the spoken word and finally into action.

In this way, the path from spiritual volition through image and thought moves ever further into the material world and begins to become visible there.

Those who follow this line of thought can go one step deeper.

According to my understanding, thoughts already exist within a finer form of materiality. They continue to carry within them the spiritual energy from which they originated. Their effect therefore reaches beyond what takes place solely within the human brain.

The spiritual element within a thought attracts that which is of the same kind. Figuratively speaking, the spiritual power active within it connects with the finest spiritual particles within matter. What began as volition increasingly takes form and continues to condense toward the visible, material world.

This is how encounters, opportunities and circumstances arise. People enter our lives. An idea appears at the right time. An opportunity opens up. Material conditions come together. Seen from the outside, some of these events appear suddenly or are described as coincidence.

In my view, they are the visible consequence of a preceding spiritual movement.

What becomes visible on the outside began long before on the inside.

This also gives a deeper meaning to our alignment with prosperity.

Through volition, a human being directs spiritual power toward prosperity. An image is formed, condensed into thought, and with it comes responsibility for what emerges from it.

Money, possessions and opportunities are far more than personal comfort. They expand our scope for action. And as this scope grows, so does our ability to build, support, give and create an impact.

“For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required.”

This thought from the Gospel of Luke describes for me an essential law of balance.

Prosperity carries responsibility within it.

The greater a person's possibilities become, the greater their sphere of influence becomes as well. For me, balance therefore means dealing wisely with what we receive. Taking what serves our own life and development, while using, sharing and refining any abundance beyond that in a meaningful way. In this way, something constructive can arise from it again.

Why do people begin life under such different circumstances?

One person is born into great financial security. Another grows up in modest circumstances. Another experiences scarcity for a long period and has to work for many things that others have known as a matter of course since birth.

In my worldview, there is no place for coincidence in this.

If we regard the human being as a spiritual being whose existence extends beyond a single earthly life, another perspective opens up.

We can then consider that a soul, on its path toward incarnation, finds the circumstances of life and the parents whose similarity of kind corresponds to its development. The Law of Attraction of the Same Kind and karmic connections thereby take on particular significance.

A person may therefore be born into financial security because this particular condition serves their development. It can provide the peace and freedom to unfold their abilities, to be creative and to bring many good things into the world with the opportunities available to them.

Another person initially experiences scarcity.

There can be a task within this as well.

Such a period of life can lead a person to search. For connections. For the laws of life. For their own spiritual power. For the meaning within their own experiences.

Scarcity can thereby change from an apparent adversary into an impulse for development.

For me, this contains a decisive thought: our present circumstances describe a state along a path. Insights can be gained, connections can be understood and inner attitudes can be changed.

And with this, the question changes as well.

Instead of “Why is this happening to me?” the question becomes:
“What can I recognize in this – and what will I make of it now?”

At this point, volition begins again.

A person recognizes their present situation, accepts it and directs their attention forward. The inner image changes. Thoughts receive a new direction. Decisions follow. Actions emerge.

Instead of complaining, hesitating or waiting for change to come from the outside, conscious development begins.

What is available is used carefully and constructively. Abilities are developed. Possibilities are recognized. Step by step, a new reality begins to emerge.

Even a period with very limited material means can acquire great value in this way. It can lead to insight, awaken a person spiritually and encourage a deeper understanding of the laws of life.

And once the insight contained within that experience has been gained, the path can continue.

Abundance is the natural state of Creation

A look at nature reveals growth, multiplication, movement and an almost unimaginable richness of forms and possibilities. From one seed grows a plant that produces many new seeds. A tree bears countless leaves and fruits. Life strives toward unfolding and development.

For me, this also contains the true image of prosperity.

Prosperity means standing well in life.

Standing well in life, inwardly and outwardly. Using one's spiritual power constructively, gaining an ever deeper understanding of the laws of Creation and dealing responsibly with what one receives.

And when one day far more arises than is needed for one's own life, prosperity receives its next purpose.

The more developed human being recognizes this abundance as an entrusted opportunity. They put it to use. They allow something new to arise from it. They support people, promote good ideas, create value and return part of what has come to them back into the great cycle.

In this way, prosperity is refined.

Not by its amount, but by what a human being makes of it.
