#TheCreativeMan – IF by Rudyard Kipling
Josh Hatcher reads the poem IF by Rudyard Kipling
If by Rudyard Kipling
(‘Brother Square-Toes’—Rewards and Fairies)If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
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 Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!
Domination: How to be a more powerful man | Manlihood ManCast with Josh Hatcher
Set your mind on winning
Mindset is everything. The most powerful force in your life. Set it on winning, and you’ll be a more powerful man.
Work hard. Every Day.
Nothing good comes free. You’ve got to earn it. If you want to be a more powerful man, you’ll have to earn that. So work hard. Grind at everything you do.
Surround yourself with winners.
They say you are the sum total of the 5 people you spend the most time with. Are you hanging otu with losers? Or are you surrounding yourself with powerful men that will teach you how to dominate?
View Failure as your teacher.
Everybody fails. Stop looking at it as the destination. It’s not wrong to fail. It’s wrong to not learn from your failure.
Become a student of leadership.
If you want to become a powerful man, you have to study leadership principles. It will do you no good to have power and have no clue how to use it.
Serve people.
This may seem counterintuitive, but the truth is – if we want to be great — if we want to be a more powerful man and to dominate – our perspective can easily become warped. It’s about serving people. It’s about helping people. That is how you will gain influence, wealth, or whatever it is you seek. The true rewards though are not in position or power, but in relationships.
Be disciplined
If you want to be a more powerful man, you have to train. If you wanted to be able to lift more weights, you have to discipline your body and train it to be stronger. The same is true in every aspect of your life.
Have integrity
They say power corrupts. If you want to be a more powerful man, but you don’t have a foundation of integrity – it means nothing. And integrity in and of itself will help you build and grow your influence.

Headstrong: How to build mental strength
In this episode of the Manlihood ManCast, Josh Hatcher talks about the building the muscle of your mind. We hear a lot of talk about physical exercise and strength building. Which is good! But we need to talk about building up the mind, too.
Garbage In / Garbage Out
What we consume affects what we produce.
Doing reps
We need to use affirmations to build up and tone muscle. Repeat truth to yourself until you believe it.
Powerlifting
If you want to be headstrong, it takes time. You’ve got to keep working it over time. I can guarantee you, you are already stronger than you think you are.
Discipline equals freedom.
We think of discipline as uncomfortable – but you’ve got to TRAIN your brain how to think. It literally rewrites your brain chemistry! (Look up Dr. Caroline Leaf’s research on this!) If you build healthy habits in the way you think, it really does set you free. But it takes discipline!

Your Stupid Mouth | Manlihood ManCast with Josh Hatcher
In this episode of the Manlihood ManCast, Josh Hatcher talks about the power of your mouth, and why you should shut the heck up.
Not everyone has to know what you know.
Not everything has to be said.
If you can’t say something good…
The power of Life and death is in the tongue
