The Seeds Of The Dead Sea

Open your horizons all by yourself, showing your full commitment to your aspirations.

They say that seeds which don't germinate unless they are removed and made fructify in conditions beneficial to their development, lie in the mud of the Dead Sea. Likewise, there are unsuspected forces and unknown virtues within us until a given point, which are not enough or at all exploited. What could be the driving force to activate them?

Day and night, beings are born for the sweet pleasures of life. And also day and night, beings are born as if to be condemned by society. This is one of the messages of the movie "Gattaca (1997)".

Vincent Freeman was one of those people whom society had harshly condemned. Since birth, specialists predicted that he would die somewhere in the age of 30. Myopic and unhealthy, Vincent stood no chance to build any successful career for himself. His attempts to employ in various companies have been in vain. Nobody wanted to hire him because he didn't have "a clean profile".

Your progress has another direction than: forward? But Vincent, despite all predictions, was a man with a strong spirit; it was something within him that nobody had noticed, and he had a great dream. He wanted to go into space, where only a handful of people could get – only those considered to be "superior". His desire to join the elite men grew from one day to another.

What a tremendous attitude ! Always perceiving things in a positive light, gathering all his courage and ambition, putting his imagination to the test, he eventually found a surprising way to get a job at Gattaca as a navigator, and eventually flew to space with the best.

Do you validate your input of value in the general model of the motivation for change by making the effort to improve the construction of a universe from which you observe what is happening in your own world?

"You weren't born for it, and you know you do no good if you get out of your womb." What do you feel when you hear this almost every day, from everybody around you?

Vincent did not belong to that class of privileged minds, with strong beliefs, which is always right. He saw everything from the point of view of his desires, being certain that, if he ever believed the world, he would never reach too far. His input of value was represented by the state of resistance with which he answered the challenges and interests of a world that rejected him, but one that could be easily reconfigured through his transformation into a different man, under the guise of a champion.

The immense universe he built for himself, from which he looked only at what was happening in his own world, was symbolized by the attempt to dissimulate to the point of denial the form of his own inner suffering, the inability to ever get close to perfection in an unshakable reality.

Do you intend to follow your path as blazed by fate and not even try to resist it? If you want to get to the top of champions, prepare to think and to act like Vincent.

It's too much for a person like you? The true test of your character doesn't consist in the walls that society raises too many times around you, but in your ability to knock them down. Strengthen your character, raise the bar of performance and never level it down.

Can you construct a vision for yourself that evolves despite the beliefs and conceptions of others, starting from the premise that a picture that is erased from the foreground is easier to accept as being an expressive one?

Vincent’s personality was composed of two parts: the foreground (the image of a man perfectly integrated in the patterns of perfection) and the secondary plan (the image of an introverted man who cannot recognize his weaknesses).

Relying on the idea that everything in sight is an expression of the Absolute Creator, but does not portray His true identity, Vincent exhibited his mastery of being himself, going through many experiences, knowing that before him stood people who would not have suffered him when finding out the truth.

Be yourself, express yourself, feel good in your skin no matter how many masks you wear or how many identities you undertake !

In order to give value to your person, you have to open your horizons all by yourself, showing your full commitment to your desires. You should never consider anything impossible to achieve.

Only the weak ones see everything through a black cloth. As time passed, Vincent's perspective on things changed. He made efforts to get to a distance from the negative beliefs of others, without being ashamed of himself or afraid of the circumstances.

Is your true value given by the purpose you undertake around a low self-image, but permanently perfected with a winning mentality?

The seeds of the Dead Sea designates your highest aspirations that cannot fulfill if you don't become a different person. As you progress to a status consistent with your level of aspirations, there will be a phase which I would call precursory: to open your horizons all by yourself and develop the confidence in yourself, showing your full commitment to your aspirations.

Release the seeds from the mud of the Dead Sea. Discover your qualities and your talents and learn how to use them in order to achieve your goals and to get out of the difficult situations you find yourself in. Always perceive things in a positive light, gather all your courage and ambition, put your imagination to the test and, eventually, you will find a surprising way to achieve your goals.
