  And lose, and start again at your

  beginnings
  

  And never breathe a word about

  your loss.
  

  If you can force your heart and nerve

  and sinew. To serve your turn long after

  They are gone. And so hold on when

  there is nothing in you. Except the

  will which says to them: Hold on!
  

  If you can talk with crowds and

  keep your virtue.
  

  Or walk with Queens - nor lose the

  common touch.
  

  If neither foes nor loving friends can

  hurt you.
  

  If all men count with you, (but only

  one very much)
  

  If you can fill the unforgiving minute,
  

  with sixty seconds worth of distance run
  

  Yours is the earth and everything that

  is in it.
  

  If at times you are at ease, and

  think of who you would like to please
  

  Try this,
