"The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing."--- Walt Disney
Before his industry became prosperous, animations were completely silent. That was the way animations were and how they were kept. It was thought that making drawings talk was unimaginable. However, Disney challenged this norm. He simply believed that he was able to make drawings speak. And he did. He recorded his voice over the animation of Mickey Mouse, which became the first talking and most successful throughout history.
In addition to his strong pursuit of own beliefs, he was also extremely optimistic. He never stopped challenging the impossible. In fact, he took every adversity as a obstacle that would make himself stronger. Indeed, he surely did achieve to make fantasy into a reality.
"I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic to know that life is a complex matter."---Walt Disney
There are many more qualities that made Walt Disney a good and distinct leader. He has left us with a lot of amazing quotes that explain how he was as a human being. Even after 50 years since his death, his preaches keep on inspiring others and will also continue to do so in the future.


I love Disney movies! I grew up watching them and still watch them:) I really like the first quote "the way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing". It's something that I wish I could do but don't have the courage to. I really admire people like that who spontaneously dive into things they are passionate about. I think that having the audacity to get in there and face obstacles as they come along is an important quality in a leader as his or her braveness encourages many others to do the same.
