Have Faith In Yourself and Your Dreams

No Talent

A young freelance artist tried to sell his sketches to a number of newspapers. They all turned him down. One Kansas City editor told him he had no talent.

But he had faith in his ability and kept trying to sell his work. Finally he got a job making drawings for church publicity material. He rented a mouse-infested garage to turn out his sketches, and he continued to produce freelance drawings in hope that someone would buy them.

One of the mice in the garage must have inspired him, for he created a cartoon character called Mickey Mouse. Walt Disney was on his way.
