Man's Next Migration

The Goldilocks Mission is sending an open invitation to men and women around the globe between 18 and 34 years of age, healthy in every way and in top physical and psychological condition, and who have read the book, GOLDILOCKS MISSION: Man’s Next Migration.

The Mission will bring together candidates from across the face of the earth from all scientific disciplines and varying backgrounds.

A Skydet will demonstrate outstanding capabilities of both leadership and teamwork and will possess physical aptitude and dexterity in various applications. They may not necessarily be geniuses, but they should be open-minded, willing to learn, unlearn, and relearn, and possess adept reasoning abilities and be emotionally stable, highly motivated, flexible, and competent.

A series of verbal interviews and physical examinations will be conducted on all candidates to determine their suitability for training. Scientific books on space travel, as well as a host of fiction and non-fiction books will be  required reading for everyone. They should also complete more than one hundred hours of meditation and must have established a regular meditative schedule.

Meditation? For one hundred hours? People who are unfamiliar with meditation may find it strange that it is included in the list of Skydet qualifications. But meditation has been shown to improve learning ability and memory and facilitate creativity and emotional stability. It helps reduce anxiety, depression, and irritability. Aside from its psychological contributions, it has been shown to improve blood pressure, increase the flow of air to the lungs, and lower the levels of chemicals associated with stress.

The following is a list of basic criteria a person must meet in order to be considered as a preliminary Skydet candidate.

* Must be between the ages of 18 and 34 being of a loving, kind, compassionate nature with vision and empathy
* Must be able to honour and accept cultural differences and work without discriminating behaviour
* Must pass all medical and laboratory tests to certify that the individual is healthy and physically fit, including the testing for STDs and other transmittable diseases
* Must have excellent or above average scores in IQ and aptitude tests
* Must pass all psychological and stress evaluations to certify that the individual is mentally and emotionally fit; a comprehensive background check will be undertaken to analyze the candidate’s behavioural history
* Must be willing to undergo necessary biological or genetic modifications as may be needed for adapting to a new planetary habitat.
* Must be willing and able to adhere to meditative and natural selection tantric yoga schedules
* Must be proficient in the use and maintenance of computer hardware and software
* Must have excellent skills and extensive knowledge in their field of discipline

In addition to these, a Skydet candidate must adapt to a new lifestyle that aims to facilitate a constant connection and identification with the entire group that will create an atmosphere of trust, responsibility and freedom for personal growth and development. Conflict shall be resolved with minimal discord and with as positive an effect as possible. The Skydet must commit to a nourishing, optimistic, and deep outlook on life. In short, a Skydet will display the affirmative attributes of love, compassion, empathy, understanding, humility and kindness.

A cultural shift starts within each and every Skydet as they begin their training and further evolves into humanity’s highest and strongest set of values. This serves as the Goldilocks Mission’s indestructible force that bonds the cooperative, supportive and loving nature into an exceptionally effective working team. It harmonizes and creates a strong sense of focus and purpose for everyone that will carry over to future generations. The Skydets are humanity’s best and will achieve humankind’s highest potential.

If you would like to apply as a Skydet, please write a 500 – 1000 word summary describing your interests, skills, background and vision.
