  • She's a British novelist best known as the author of the Harry Potter fantasy series.
    The books have gained worldwide attention, won multiple awards, and sold more than 400 million copies.
    In 2004, Forbes named her as the first person to become a billionaire by writing books.
    She's J.K. Rowling and here are her Top 10 Rules for Success.
    * Join my BELIEVE newsletter: www.evancarmichael.com/newslet...
    1. Failure helps you discovers yourself
    She went from living on state benefits to multi-millionaire status within 5 years.
    2. Take action on your ideas
    The Harry Potter books have become the best-selling book series in history.
    3. You will be criticized
    Anticipating that the target audience of young boys might not want to read a book written by a woman, her publishers asked that she use two initials, rather than her full name.
    4. Remember where you started
    She was diagnosed with clinical depression which she claims gave her inspiration to create the Dementors in the Potter series.
    5. #Believe
    Twelve publishing houses rejected her original Harry Potter manuscripts, but eventually small publisher Bloomsbury gave her a chance with a small advance.
    6. There is always trepidation
    She conceived the idea for Harry Potter in 1990. The 7 years that followed saw the death of her mother, divorce from her first husband and relative poverty until Rowling finished the first novel.
    7. Life is not a checklist of achievements
    She named communist and civil rights activist Jessica Mitford as her "most influential writer".
    8. Persevere
    She's the United Kingdom's best-selling living author, with sales in excess of £238m.
    9. Dreams can happen
    In 2010, she was named the "Most Influential Woman in Britain" by leading magazine editors.
    10. We have the power to imagine better
    Harry Potter is now a global brand worth an estimated US$15 billion.

  • @drem6908

    Interesting that JK just tweeted about this video a few hours ago and said: "God, I hate this stuff. I've winged it my whole life. I've messed up regularly. There are no rules. Do your thing."
    Which I suppose sums up all the rules, in a way- be bold, be willing to put in the hard work, do your thing (Oprah's 'find your purpose'), don't be afraid of making mistakes, take some risks, and don't follow the rules (wing it/ have fun).
    I'd like to think both sides of the coin are right. There are no "rules" in that sense, but there are principles to live by, and if they inspire us to become our best selves, then that's a good thing.

    • @EvanCarmichael
      @EvanCarmichael  Před 8 lety +18

      Thank you for sharing DrEm. Yes, really interesting. :) "Do your thing" could be a rule on itself. The videos are created to inspire and motivate people to #Believe and take action by following their passion and achieving their goals and dreams. It is up to anyone to follow or not and most probably there are rules that will resonate with us. As per your word "if they inspire you to become your best self, then that's a good thing" indeed. :) Perhaps you can also make your own rules that will inspire others - #Believe.

      In JK's case: Find a single purpose and never branch out. You can say that you are, but that's just lip service to your critics. Never. Let. It. Go.

    • @NoahHornberger
      @NoahHornberger Před 7 lety +9

      this list of rules is someone doing their own thing . . . so the key is to see that there are no rules against rules. Some will achieve with no rules, and others will use many rules. The point is not how you get there but that you realize along the way that your path is your own

    The following advise of hers always stayed with me, I think it stems from her commencement speech; "Failure meant a stripping away of the inessential. I stopped pretending towards myself that I was anything other than what I was, and began to direct all my energy into finishing the only work that mattered to me. Rock bottom became the solid foundation onto which I rebuilt my life."

      +Dylan Balkind Everything in life is mental. While we are under the illusion that the human brain has limitations, in reality, we are capable of anything that we believe to be capable of. While our perception of those capabilities is bogged down by external forces such as the media and government, that doesn't mean you cannot achieve whatever you want in life. The biggest step is realizing that limitations are nothing more than a social construction. You would be surprised what you can achieve in life by believing.

We humans are the only species that can imagine things and create them for ourselves. Everything. If you read the right books, read studies, ouresearch yourself in past experiences in life than you would know it.
      also it never comes in a day. And humans can already fly, cause physical we have no wings, but we created an airplane out of an IDEA in someones head. Everybody thought he was insane but he made it happen. So yes, it is actually more realistic to believe in yourself then convincing yourself you can`t do shit.

    Great work on this Evan. I like Rowling's perspective on being criticized. Not only did she mention that we should expect to be criticized, but she admitted that at times it's "right and proper" that we should be criticized. We should indeed accept, expect, and even desire criticism so that we can learn from it and grow.

      Anthony Miyazaki My understanding was that, although we don't fare well under criticism, this is a must in things pertaining to art because it is subjective. HP had been rejected more than 10 times before she found a publishing house for the book. This, I think, speaks volumes about her trust in her own craftsmanship.

    Thanks for this video! I have so much respect for J.K. Rowling and all her accomplishments. Taking action on ideas really hit home with me. So many people have great ideas that they are truly passionate about but they never take single step towards making it happen. Believing in yourself sounds so easy but it's mostly not. If you can't, find someone to believe in you until you can!

    *Persevere -* This is so important in order to make sure you can fully show up in the situation you're in. Without this, no progress can ever be made through the challenging times, rejections and setbacks. It's one of the main contributing actions that if not taken, will not have you at the top of your profession's hierarchy. I'm having a pretty tough day today, so I need to really keep this in mind. #BTA41

    Favorite quote, "We carry all the power we need inside ourselves already." (I take this to mean that there's a part of ourselves that refuses to let our talent flow and it "counsels" us that we need something else to succeed, when all we need is to pull our own finger from the dike we've built to hold back our creativity.)

    @ClearTheRubble7 Před 8 lety +3

    This "10 rules" video confirms a lot of what I've experienced so far. I've got the failure part of it down-pat, lol, but I've found that perseverance is one of the most important rules of thumb. Another one, which wasn't mentioned here, is "follow your intuition." I've had a few ideas that didn't quite sit right with me. Or else they were downright bad. So I rejected them, only to discover that there were much better ideas waiting for me down the road. And that has taken some patience; it's better to wait for a great idea, sometimes after several days of brainstorming, than to jump on a mediocre one.
    When I had my idea for a novel a few months ago, I immediately googled J.K. Rowling, took a cue from her experience, and began to plan (and write) every day. Thanks for the video!

    I was wainting for it ! I'm not a huge Harry Potter fan (even if I like it a lot), but J.K Rowling is the perfect example of "do what's inside you and persevere, whatever publishers tell you" because she tried so much times before somebody published her work !
    As an artist, each of her rules resonates with me in a deep way. :)
    I would love to see top 10 rules from other artists. You made some singers, but I could be cool to have film makers or other authors too !

    I loved when J.K. Rowling talked about not giving up and not letting anyone talk you out of your dream. I am so passionate about writing fiction, short stories mainly. I cannot imagine not ever being able to write. Being regularly published would be so wonderful, but it's writing, it's getting to the final, seemingly polished draft that's great for me and then sending it off tells me that I am continuing to try to make my dream come true. Great video. We definitely need more about other fiction writers.

No power is greater than who created all humankind. in times of desperation all call out His name. I'm not here to debate that's Iblis's game but just wanted to give you the message. What you do with it is up to you.

      If life is a test......If life isn't a test.....I'm merely a 12 year old boy....I know nothing about life....I admit...But I do know one thing about life. It's like a piece of mudded clay.....It's subjective. ....It depends...
      It's up to you to think about life....The Bible, Qur'an, Mikrah and , is honestly a book....Am I wrong?....Who wrote it?, a man....Is that wrong?....Novels are a bunch of papers that have a plot, setting,and aspects...Is that wrong.?.....If you say it's wrong...well, I have no right to change your opinion....nobody does...it's up to you...but If you agree with me..you will find the beauty escaping reality by words ...it takes you to different places....It inspires..It creates. ..It destroys. ...Books are all of those...now....Do you want to escape reality?...That's honestly your choice. ....I would honestly want to...The world is a sick place.It can be both beautiful and horrendous. .....And like the world..your answer can be both.....

      To be happy you should be born in right family with siblings.She suffered in early stage so it is very difficult to be happy when you are an adult.

      +Traveleneur Too many of these lessons need to be taught, quizzed and tested on. Would rather see these on a state issued exam.

      +New Future Builder Too bad educators never ask themselves : how can we help kids to be better persons? Instead they design and implement curricula that are out of synch with everyday life and that do not benefit kids as much as they should in the long term.

      Ioana Popescu You're right, and we will have to change that. Luckily, there is more opportunity for change out there now more than ever and we are moving to bring that idea to classrooms.
