I read it as the spiritual idea that the universe is active in things like karma / prosperity gospel. I don't agree with it and I suspect this type of thinking captures lots of fools, but I would grant that it does "mean something".

There is little spiritual or foolish in this. When you solve a problem in a creative way, be it a cool application of an algorithm, a feature, a product, a clever bug fix, a clever marketing campaign, new way to raise money, etc, you get rewarded.
