He noticed that there weren’t any animation studios in California so he set up his own. Short after that he found his first major success with the creation of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. Later he found out his producer had taken his team of animators from under him and that he had no legal rights to Oswald the Rabbit anymore.

Disney decided to walk away and start over again. On the train back to California he created Mickey Mouse. After years of eating beans and driving up his debts, Disney brought Mickey Mouse to life on film starting in the late 1920’s and earned his way back to the top of the industry. After getting rejected for the concept of his famous mouse over 300 times, some one said yes. It later became the face of his company.

He opened Disneyland on July 17, 1995 in California. It got of to a rocky start, fake tickets were bringing more visitors than anticipated, with high temperatures the new asphalt was melting women’s heels, drinking fountains were defective and some of the rides malfunctioned. The opening of Disneyland is called ‘Black Sunday’ by some critics. But as always tenacity turned his latest endeavour around. Disneyland became a huge success which cleared out all his financial debts.

Some quotes of Walt Disney are;
“Get a good idea, and stay with it; dog it, and work at it until it’s done, and done right”
“If you can dream it, you can do it”
On the failure of Laugh-O-Grams he said “I had a good hard failure while I was young”
“All the adversity I’ve had in my life, all the troubles and obstacles, strengthened me. You may not realise it when it happens, but a kick in teeth may be the best thing in the world for you”
