The island of Berk is beset by dragons, which raid their stock of sheep. Dragons are known to be vicious and will always "go for the kill". Therefore, the Vikings fight to kill the dragons, in order to wipe them out and finish the war. "Hiccup" was a youth who was undergoing training to be a Viking. However instead of learning how to KILL a dragon, he mastered the art of how to TRAIN a dragon. In return, he managed to control his dragon and even saved his villagers' lives with a heroic fight against the ultimate villian, a giant and parasitic dragon that lives in a nest.
In life, how often do we plan and plot on how to KILL our enemies? We bitched about their acts, put them down, sabotaged their efforts and in the process, it becomes an unpleasant environment with strained relationships. We don't have to resort to all these.
In life, we become masters if we can TRAIN our 'enemies' - to be on our side and fight the 'war'. I realised that it wasn't an easy job then in my previous company, as TRAINING my 'enemies' means giving a nonchalant expression and even resorting to occasional smiles to get them to do the job.
Maybe the real art is in the training of yourself in order to train your dragon.
