From Deep Depression To World's Richest Writer | Real Life Story of J.K. Rowling - Harry Potter

J.K Rowling is one of the most motivational and inspiration people who showed the world how determination and faith can pull you through just about anything, and that hard work really does pay off. She describes the most traumatizing moment in her life as the day her mother died — it was New Year's Day in 1991 when Rowling was 25. This was six months after she began writing "Harry Potter," and she lamented that her mother never knew she was writing it. After her mother's death, Rowling moved to northern Portugal for a fresh start and taught English as a foreign language. After that she started dating a man who she married later and became pregnant with her daughter Jessica. Living in a cramped apartment with her daughter, jobless and penniless, Rowling fell into a deep depression and admits she even considered suicide. Rowling said during a 2008 Harvard University commencement speech. After receiving "loads" of rejections from book publishers when she first sent out the manuscript, Bloomsbury, a publishing house in London, gave "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" the green light in 1997.
If you have a dream or a passion and you keep getting rejected, or running into failure, DON'T LET THAT STOP YOU! If you're going trough a tough time in your life, but working on something you really believe in, DON'T GIVE UP!
