Five Tips from JK Rowling to Become Rich and Successful in Life

J. K. Rowling is a famous English writer who penned the Harry Potter series. Her mercurial rise to fame is nothing short of inspiring. As of June 2011, she has sold more than 450 million books. And her works were translated into 67 languages. Her final book in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, is one of the fastest-selling books. At just forty-six years of age, she sits at a net worth of $1 billion.
Though she has reached the zenith of success, making it to several lists of the world’s richest woman or the world’s most influential woman and so on, it was not always like that. She wasn’t always this rich and struggled to make ends meet, struggling as a researcher and bi-lingual secretary for Amnesty International. She has been there, done that, and now she is here to tell her tale, dole out some tips to budding entrepreneurs, who can go ahead and conquer the world if they have the will, hard work, and the perseverance for it. Well, her tips are invaluable, so go ahead and note them all, to help you in your journey.
Don’t Advertise Your Product Till You Are Sure of It
Rowling had been a writer, but she wasn’t very sure to publish. She had written two books before Harry Potter, but in her opinion, it wasn’t as good, so she did not publish them. So, entrepreneurs who are in a hurry to get their products in the market should wait before releasing their products. But what they need to do is get their product right before marketing them.
When You Have a Great Idea, Act on It
She got the idea of Harry Potter when she was traveling from Manchester and London, and she spent four hours thinking about Hogwarts. When she finally got off at the King’s Cross, she had all the characters well-etched. If you are a small business owner, you need to be aware of a great idea, if it dawns on you. But if you do have an idea and recognize its potentiality, grab the opportunity with both hands and act upon it, before the idea runs cold.
Perseverance More Than Anything Else
Notwithstanding her life upheavals and her career uncertainties, she still egged on. She never lost hope, even when most publishing houses rejected all her books. She failed innumerable times, but that did not deter her from pursuing her goals. An entrepreneur can take a leaf out of her book and persevere even if the odds are against them.
Keep Your Focus on the Point
After many a struggle, Rowling convinced Bloomsbury, a small publisher, to publish her first book. Her editor advised her to stop writing books for children. Instead, she should get a day job. Ignoring her advice, was the best decision Rowling had ever taken as most of her books, read seven volumes broke all records. She has this to say to the small business owners, let no one stand in the way of you and your goals. If you have got it, go ahead and get it.
Respect Individual Differences
JK Rowling did not pursue success ever. She just did what she liked doing. Her agenda was simple. She wanted to make a difference in the world, and worked her way to do just that. So, this is a learning tip for entrepreneurs. Business owners must identify the unique thing they have in themselves to offer to the world,, and when the goal is right, they will surely be able to reach them.
Here’s one more thing you could learn from the super successful JK Rowling – no matter where you start from, even if it humbling beginnings, you can still achieve the impossible. Don’t let the circumstances bother you, and don’t let the challenges of life bring you down. Chin up, and move forward, have confidence in your skills, and you are sure to go ahead and achieve your dreams.
So, follow your heart, and give it your fullest success will no longer be just a dream. We hope these tips helped and gave you the much-needed motivation to become as famous and successful as J.K.Rowling herself! Don’t forget to share this write up with someone who needs some motivation!
