Failure is a Way to Success

Failure changed to Success
I chose J. K. Rowling to represent a failure turned to success. Soon after starting work on the first Harry Potter book, Joanne's mother passed away. This caused her to sink into a grieving depression and little work on her book was completed.
She was also divorced and left to care for her young daughter herself.  
When her novel was complete it was rejected many times by different publishers.
After 12 rejections she felt ready to give up. Until one publisher's child read the first few chapters and begged for it to get published.
Something I took away from her story is to never stop trying even when everything seems hopeless.
