There shouldn’t be an introduction to who J. K. It’s Rowling for most people who read this article, but how are there unsuspecting people?She is the author of Harry Potter, and if I may, she is part of the youth of more than a generation. Behind a great man there is usually a great woman (and vice versa). So, going back to that same structure, we can say that behind everyone who succeeds there is a story with which we can learn.
Even more so when it comes to a writer, because he tends to sin, without being able to avoid and most without even trying to avoid, introducing some of his personal experiences into his stories.
- “I tend to use important dates.
- When I need a date or number.
- I use something related to my personal life.
- Don’t I know why I’m doing this? Harry’s birthday.
- For example.
- Is mine.
- Do the numbers that appear or the dates in the books concern me?.
Biographies often full of mistakes. In fact, recently I heard a writer?Of which I do not remember the name to say that something that his profession had taught him was to “make baskets”, that is, throw balls of paper in the trash when he had written things that did not work or did not fit, and accepted it as part of his work.
So, at the end of our lives we have a dumpster full of papers containing our mistakes, and there’s nothing wrong with accepting them: it’s a law that’s written in our human condition, I’m not talking about mistakes that are objective mistakes, but mistakes that make us feel.
You may be wondering why I started this article talking about JKRowling, well, I did it because, to write it, I used the speech he gave at the end of a course at Harvard University in 2008 as inspiration. a few years later, in his words:
“I had failed on an epic scale. She had broken up an unusually brief marriage, she had no job, was a single mother and was as poor as you can be in Britain, without being a beggar.
In addition to viewers, overtaking stories arouse positive feelings, the truth is that the way he uses it to speak is understood that without this finished marriage and without this crisis, today Harry Potter would hardly exist. , when he began writing Harry Potter, it was not to achieve the success he has today, but to run away, clarify his ideas and somehow put his life in order.
He thinks that dreaming big usually requires big investments, even more surrounded by so many ads that tell us that if we don’t have a certain thing we won’t achieve what we want. Aren’t we going to be so beautiful?
In addition, starting with modest claims and investments means that we can bear the price of the mistakes we can make, which gives us room for manoeuvre in case we’re late or leave the project closed for a while, if we haven’t conditioned our entire lives. in this project, the way to get fresh air will be easier.
Fear of failure can be a paralyzing spell, but it can also have a motivating effect. Becoming one or the other depends on several factors. Perhaps the first of them is self-love, whoever recognizes himself and respects himself will come out of the water when he sees currents trying to drag him to the bottom, whoever thinks he has nothing to save will give up and the fund won’t even be used to get a boost.
It also depends on who we depend on. Interestingly, in Harry Potter, there is a paradox that is invariably repeated in all of us: a certain tendency to loneliness must coexist with the need for relationship, since we are social animals. It is the failure, or the threat of it, that shows us who we can count on, are the people who stay, agree or not with us, their love is not conditioned on our aspirations or our property, but on who we are.
Fear of failure can be a paralyzing spell, but it can also have a motivating effect.
Are most teens said to feel misunderstood?And most college students, young workers, adult workers, older workers and most retirees. The truth is that very few people get someone’s support when they run for a purpose.
For teens, misunderstandings are often reflected in parents. Rowling experienced this misunderstanding in her own skin when her parents rejected the idea that she should study English literature instead of modern languages. He also says that “there is a deadline to blame your parents for guiding you in the wrong direction. “So, transcending that date, is it itself an exercise in maturity, since it involves not blaming others – in this case, parents – for their failures and taking responsibility for them.
Thus, failures bring the necessary caution to the immature person, who is characterized by his impulsivity, and add a dimension to what we have achieved, either because we lost later or because we feel very close to that possibility. people ignore their achievements until they feel they may lose them or have lost them forever.
Finally, does failure lead us to times of crisis when the essentials are revealed with all its might?And the essentials are no longer what we have; What we say will always be ourselves and what we learn, both above and below, so when you fail don’t close your eyes, because it has nothing to do with recreating yourself with sadness and abandonment, it has to do with faith by getting up enough so you can see the sun again.
Try to do as few elements as possible in your fall, but above all protect your self-esteem, it will be him and not someone else who, when the ghosts appear, will put you on the move preventing you from being paralyzed.
I was free, because my greatest fears had materialized, and I was still alive, and I always had a daughter I loved, and I still had a typewriter and a great idea, and then the stones on the ground became the foundation on which I felt. rebuilt my life. ? J. k. Rowling?
