J.K. Rowling’s infamous Harvard Commencement speech, emphasizing the need to embrace failure and use our imagination to fulfill our true potential, presents advice, truth, and advantageous hope and wisdom. Taking experiences and events from her own life, her powerful words have been transcribed into an 80-page book.

We do not need magic to transform our world; we carry all the power we need inside ourselves already.
