Here are some more information for Double Dragon:
Much folklore about dragons was believed throughout time. In Egyptian mythology, the god of the underworld, Osiris, is sometimes represented by a dragon. In Greek mythology, dragons are always guarding something or eating someone. In European mythology, a dragon is a serpent-like legendary creature. In both Eastern and Western mythology, the dragon is believed to be responsible for eclipses.
In Bulgarian legend, dragons are three headed, winged beings with snake's bodies. There is also a white dragon, which according to legend can transform into a bird called O-Goncho. The dragon also plays a vital role in Arthurian legend.
In Romanian folklore, even the snake, which in certain conditions, has the ability to turn into a dragon, has a strong malefic meaning. The ancient Greeks and Romans, who revered dragons for their wisdom but feared them for their tremendous powers, shared this belief. Similarly, in the Babylonian creation myth, Tiamat the embodiment of chaos is portrayed as a terrible dragon. This myth is almost as hard to kill as the dragon itself was. For this reason, the dragon symbol is the sign of authority, often being worn on the robes of the Imperial family and nobility.
Dragons have long been considered evil, maiden-stealing, village destroying, fire-breathing beasts. This lead to many brave knights attempting to hunt down and slay dragons, as recounted in many medieval writings. When knights began inventing stories about them defeating such dragons, the dragon and knighthood peak was reached.
Almost every country in the world as some sort of dragon story. Legends and myths are filled with stories of dragons. In European mythology, a dragon is a serpent-like legendary creature. In many legends dragons personify evil, and are vicious beasts who live to wreak havoc and must be pacified by human sacrifice. One of the most feared monsters of the Greeks and Romans was the Hydra, a dragon with multiple heads and poisonous breath.
In fairy tales and in medieval poetry in the Western world dragons are dangerous, untrustworthy creatures. Medieval people liked to scare each other with dragons. All peopel are drawn by the dragon's aura of mystery, its ancient magic, its nobility; its awesome might and power.

Double Your Way To A Million
Well last week my thoughts were mostly success bound as I was finishing off reading a great autobiography from one of the leading, current day entrepreneurs from here in the UK. Most of you in Britain will know of Duncan Bannetyne from the TV series, Dragons Den. In his biography he shares with his readers how an underachiever at school became a high achiever in business! It is a truly remarkable story and a must read for anyone.
In this article I want to talk briefly about beliefs and about 1 million pounds!
So first let's get on to beliefs. Beliefs are strange things that steer us in different directions. They even let us know what we are capable of and worst still - what we are not capable of. Beliefs are great things to have as long as you are in control of them. For instance if you where on a tall cliff with only a map and a compass then the belief that humans can't fly would be a good one to have - as to stop you from taking the fastest route to the beach below.
Now I want to get onto the 1 million pounds. This is a nice round figure. If you earned £20408.16 per month from the age of 16 until you were 65 you will have made it! However you probably would have just about spent it as well on living expenses. Too many, it seems like an unachievable goal and to others, 1 million pounds is a drop in the ocean. So why is this? Why do so many see fortunes as being unreachable? Well this comes back to beliefs.
The way we look at what one million pounds is, is important as if we see it as something that it is not, or even as something more than it is then we move it even further from our reach.
Now I propose an experiment. How easy would I be for you to take £1 and double it within a week? What Ideas could you come up with that could make that shiny little one pound coin turn into two shiny little one pound coins? If this is so easy then would it not also be achievable to take £500,000.00 and double it and turn it into a million? I guess you are seeing where I am going - but where would you get half a million in the first place to turn into that 1 million pound goal?
Easy! If you take the one pound from the original experiment and double it every week for 21 weeks you will have reached your 1 million pound goal! Now I bet that has made you look at what one million pounds is differently.
So there you have it! If you cut your big goals down into smaller ones you will achieve them quicker and easier than you think!
