A Writer's 'If'

The original 'If' by Rudyard Kipling is one of my favorite poems and inspirational quotes of all time! It's a great motivator for when you're holding on to dreams with your last fraying thread.

If you've never read it before, find it here.

So, imagine how thrilled I was to discover a writer's version of it, penned by Jon Gibbs, who posted it at his blog and over at the Bransforums.

LOVE it!

    Very nice. And a good piece of writing to keep taped up near the computer for future reference.

    If you can do all that, you will succeed.

    Hey,

    That was a fun read, and I am sooooo not into poetry (is that bad:) but I dig it that tons of people are, so each to their own, right:)

    As long as we can be Writers, it doesn't matter what we write, as long as it makes us happy.

    Good grief I am rambling today :)
