Slaying the dragons in personal life

I had weird dream this morning around 4 am. I was having a sword and was slaying the dragons. May be because I was watching a Tamil movie where the hero and the villain were fighting all the time with all kinds of construction tools. I started thinking about the dragon slaying and I remembered Wendell Smith's Dragon Slayer conference at www.hop.org when David Talaiver was about 3 years old.
David has the dragon slayer T-shirt and Wendell lifted him up and said "here is one of the young dragon slayers" on the stage. I am unable to remember what Wendell shared but I started thinking about the dragons that may hinder my successful relationship with others at home and at work place.
This is my list and you may have others.
1. Pride
2. Silence (Instead of talking at appropriate times, I may keep quiet for selfish reasons)
3. Lack of patience (when tasks are not completed on time or when people do not pay attention to details and make mistakes)
4. Greed (not for money in my life, but greed to make my work place the best in the world; in striving for excellence, I always reflect "am I trying to reach this at the expense of others?)

I do not have fear about anything because my faith overcome fear. I call this F against F. Bur Fear is one of the dragons of teens today in many ways.
