FAILURE IS AN OPTION

ENTREPRENEUR :  Walter Elias Disney

COMPANY             :  Walt Disney

When you think of success, its easy to think of Walt Disney. Surely he was successful. He created more than 81 feature films and hundreds of shorts. He earned more than 950 honors, including 48 Academy awards. He founded the California institute of the arts. And he build Disneyland. But those honors come frome difficult challenges even failures. And, yet from hard times came important lessons and events, which would serve him later. Walt’s life was filled with such events. Painful and difficult moments that he have been through in his life. At age 22, Walt experienced bankruptcy after failure of a cartoon series in Kansas City. He headed to Los Angeles with $40 in cash, and an imitation-leather suitcase containing only a shirt, two undershorts, two pairs of socks and some drawing materiala. Feeling that others did animation better, his goal was to be an actor out in Hollywood. It never occureted. The upside was that he and his brother Roy realized there was no animation business headquartered in California. They set up stakes and the rest is history. In time, they come the most successful team brothers in Hollywood.
