Despite the huge success of JK Rowling, the author of the much-reclaimed book series, "Harry Potter," has experienced the downside effects of being rejected and turned down. Furthermore, JK Rowling revealed her rejection letter and the things that pushed her to aspire for more.
Looking for a job is not easy. It is not trouble-free to find a job and be hired. Even though there are skills and talents as well as the expertise, finding a job is easier said than done. None other than Rowling has particularly experienced the excruciating outcome of being turned down.
In a post from Business Insider, it revealed, "Her manuscript was rejected by 12 different publishing houses before she finally found a publisher, but even with the incredibly successful "Harry Potter" franchise under her belt, one of Rowling's newer manuscripts was also recently denied."
It stands out that Rowling used a different name to submit her manuscript but it was denied. It goes without saying that rejection is a constant twin of success. In line with that, one can draw various lessons from her ordeal and one of the lessons learned from her experience was her willingness to pursue her goal and her career. It is inevitable that as jobseekers search to find their dream job, blockades can erupt at such a desperate time and when that happens, many give up while others seek a different path.
With J.K Rowling, being rejected is not the end of her career or in finding a job but it is a beginning. Any jobseekers that give up when rejected needs to realize that rejection is one of the elemental realities in climbing the ladder to success.
For those that wants success in their careers and in landing their career jobs, following Rowling's lead can be helpful and mimicking her outlook and preferences in life is beneficial too. In a separate post from Jobs & Hire, Rowling began her career in her early 20's and from then on she 12 rejections.
Nevertheless, despite the painful rejections, J.K Rowling was able to overcome the pain of being turned down and used those experiences to fuel her to not give up until she attain her dream.
