In Stanza 1 Kipling says to stay strong and clear-headed even if others are hostile towards us, to trust ourselves even when others don’t (but also to accept that they might doubt us), to encourage patience, to not lie even if people lie about us, to not hate others even if we are hated ourselves, and finally to not boast or seem too perfect and clever about all of our strengths — we shouldn’t ‘look too good, nor talk too wise’.
Stanza 2 gives advice on our thoughts and actions: we should think and dream, but not allow these to control us, and we should not be too influenced by moments of extreme success (Triumph) or failure (Disaster). We should also be able to withstand seeing our truths manipulated by others, and our hard work coming undone or being broken. When something we’ve put effort into has broken, we should work to fix it again.
Stanza 3 explores the idea of perseverance — never giving up. Kipling extends the concepts of success and failure, saying that we should be able to lose everything we’ve earned and still have the motivation to build it back up, as well as never complaining to others about the loss. We should push our nerves and emotions as far as they’ll go, and then some more — by making our willpower stronger than anything else.
Finally, in Stanza 4 is about achieving greatness, but staying humble — Kipling says we should keep our individuality and goodness when talking to crowds, as well as staying in touch with everyday people even when achieving high status. We should make ourselves liked by everyone, although not the point of obsession. If we can fill even the smallest amount of time with achieving our long term projects and goals, then ‘the Earth’ is ours — and we will be fully adult.
