Life Power Tip In some situations, it is better not to take action at all. Non-action is still a choice and still produces a result. Decide what you want and then determine what, if any, action is required. Check in with yourself to see if certain actions need removing from how you spend time, to produce the result you are after. Action Realize that you make mistakes just as others do, and you will make more in the future. Challenge Learn as much as you can about the ways your role models think and the actions they take each day.

Wow, the boys next door have got their music up loud (again). They’re playing “War Pigs” by Black Sabbath. I actually like it. I’m a boomer and it’s not one I remember. Lyrics: Generals gathered in their masses Just like witches at black masses Evil minds that plot destruction Sorcerer of death's construction In the fields, the bodies burning As the war machine keeps turning Death and hatred to mankind Poisoning their brainwashed minds Oh, Lord, yeah Politicians hide themselves away They only started the war Why should they go out to fight? They leave that role to the poor, yeah Time will tell on their power minds Making war just for fun Treating people just like pawns in chess Wait 'til their judgement day comes, yeah Now in darkness, world stops turning Ashes where their bodies burning No more war pigs have the power Hand of God has struck the hour Day of judgement, God is calling On their knees, the war pigs crawling Begging mercy for their sins Satan laughing, spreads his wings Oh, Lord, yeah Songwriters: Ozzy Osbourne / Terence Michael Butler / William T. Ward / F. Frank Iommi
