JK Rowling commencement speech at Harvard: The fringe benefits of failure

JK Rowling, of course, authored the bestselling Harry Potter fantasy. Her creation -- a spellbinding, seven-installment series -- brought her from rags to riches.



At her Harvard University commencement speech, JK Rowling offers some powerful, heartening advice to dreamers and overachievers, including one hard-won lesson that she deems "worth more than any qualification I ever earned."

Her heart-felt comments encourage us to reach out to help our friends, our community, our government, and our world. Enjoy.
