Inception

Dom Cobb is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable. Cobb's rare ability has made him a coveted player in this treacherous new world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive and cost him everything he has ever loved. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption. One last job could give him his life back but only if he can accomplish the impossible - Inception. Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his team of specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an idea but to plant one. If they succeed, it could be the perfect crime.
In reality, the corporate world is full of inceptions - the question is whether we are aware of them. To gain approval for a project, show him how it will benefit him. To win support from your friends, bring them a free lunch. To get promoted on your job, sabotage your colleagues' work.

Little ideas are like seeds, for:
     'Plant them early, plant them right;
      Give them water and sunlight;
      They will grow and rise with might;
      And your dream will soon be within your sight.'
