The Motivational Success Story of J.K. Rowling.
The most traumatizing moment in Rowling's life was the day her mother died. She was 25 at the time. The death of her mother shattered her completely. This happened six months after, she began writing "Harry Potter" and she was sorry that her mother never knew that she was writing it. After the death of her mother, she moved to Portugal in 1992 and got married. So, she gave birth to a daughter, Jessica.
But things became worse....
Her marriage did not last long and only after 13 months she divorced him and moved to Edinburgh, with her daughter and the first three chapters of "Harry Potter". She was totally depend on state benefits and spent much of her time writing "Harry Potter" in cafes with Jessica sleeping in the pram next to her.
An exceptionally short-lived marriage had imploded and I was jobless a lone parent and as poor as possible to be in modern Britain, without being homeless.
Rowling was into a deep depression and admitted that she even might have considered suicide.
So how her Life Changed?
Because she was so poor she couldn't afford a computer or even the cost of photocopying the 90,000-word novel, so she manually typed out each version to send to publishers. After sending her manuscript to various publishers and getting rejected by every single one, Rowling began losing confidence in her book. She send her manuscript to at least 12 publishers at that time.
Finally, the publishing house in London, Bloomsbury a small London publisher, gave it a second chance after the CEOs eight-year-old daughter fell in love with it. Her books has since sold more than four hundred and fifty million copies, won innumerable awards, been made into movies and completely transformed Rowling's Life.
In 2011 Forbes estimated Rowling to be worth about 1 billion dollars. She remains on its list of the world's most powerful celebrities and top earning authors.
J.K Rowling went from being a jobless single mother to one of the best-selling authors of all time.
But it Didn't Happen Overnight.
She faced so many rejections and regularly fight for success. She worked hard at her craft before anyone noticed her.
If you have a Dream or a Passion and you just keep getting ejected and running into failure, Do not let that stop you!
If you are going through a tough time in your life, but working on something you really believe in, Don't give up!
Who knows you might have end up breaking records !!!
