Esto no es realmente un quote sino parte de un párrafo de un speech que hizo J.K. Rowling que realmente me conmovió y no solo eso también me inspiro a seguir adelante con mis sueños y metas que a veces veo lejos de mi o inalcanzables...a veces quisiera rendirme pero algo en mi me recuerda que no puedo, no por nadie sino por mi, porque me lo debo porque he pasado por tantas cosas a mi corta edad que seria el insulto mas grande a mi mismo dejarlo todo así nadamas, después de tantas cosas que he logrado. Se que no todo serán éxitos pero estoy dispuesto a seguir el camino porque definitivamente es mejor tratar y fracasar...a ni siquiera dignarse a tratar. Dejare el link para quienes deseen leerlo todo.
This is not really a quote but a parragraph from a speech made by J.K. Rowling that really touched me and not just that, it inspired me to keep searching and working for my dreams and goals that may sometime seem far or unreachable...sometime I get the feeling of just giving in but then something in me reminds me I can´t, not for anybody but myself, because I owe it to me, I´ve been through so many things at my short age that it would be and insult to myself giving up, after all the things I´ve achieved so far. I know things won´t always turn out a sucess but I am willing to keep walking the road because its undoubtly better to try and fail....that not trying at all. I leave the link for those of you who would like to read all the speech.
"So why do I talk about the benefits of failure? Simply because failure meant a stripping away of the inessential. I stopped pretending to 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. Had I really succeeded at anything else, I might never have found the determination to succeed in the one arena I believed I truly belonged. I was set free, because my greatest fear had been realised, and I was still alive, and I still had a daughter whom I adored, and I had an old typewriter and a big idea. And so rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life". - J.K. Rowling, “The Fringe Benefits of Failure, and the Importance of Imagination"
