IF

1. If you can keep your head, when all about you are losing theirs and blaming you;
2. If you can trust yourself, when all men doubt you, but you make allowances for their doubting too;
3. If you can wait, and not be tired of waiting;
4. If you are being lied about, but don't deal in lies;
5. If you are being hated, but don't give way to hating;
6. If you don't look too good, but don't talk too wise;
7. If you can dream, but not make dreams your master;
8. If you can think, and not make thoughts your aim;
9. If you can meet triumph and disaster, and treat them just the same;
10. If you can make one heap of all your winnings, and risk it and lose and start again without breathing a word about it;
11. If you can talk with crowds, and keep your virtue intact;
12. If you can walk with kings, and not lose the common touch;
13. If neither foes nor friends can hurt you;
14. If all men count with you, but none too much;
15. If you can fill the minute, with sixty seconds of worthy run;
Then yours is the Earth, and everything that's in it, and you will be a Man.
