There are many quotes out there that can inspire you, but one man in particular combines motivation with youthfulness, which is something we can all relate to. For whatever reason, quotes from Walt Disney are much more than a few words he put together.
College students can read them, find that little bit of Disney magic in them, and get new motivation out of them. If you find yourself stuck working towards your next goal, or trying to figure out your next move, here are some quotes from Walt Disney that may help inspire you.
1. "Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age, and dreams are forever." -Walt Disney
As college students, we often feel the pressure to have everything figured out. We are made to feel like there is no time to find the "right path." It doesn't matter how old we are, or how fast we accomplish a certain goal, there is still time to dream.
2. "All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them." -Walt Disney
It's easy to think of a list of things you want to do. So, what's holding you back? Go for them. Take a chance.
3. "If you can dream it, you can do it." -Walt Disney
This is probably one of Walt Disney's most memorable quotes. He dreamed up Disneyland, and then created it. If that's not inspiring then I don't know what is.
4. "First, think. Second, believe. Third, dream. And finally, dare." -Walt Disney
Come up with an idea, believe that it can happen, plan, and then start accomplishing it. Don't wait around. The fact that you thought of something and you are still thinking about it is a sign that you should pursue it.
5. "Why worry? If you've done the best you can, worrying won't make it any better." -Walt Disney
College students are often reminded of how we could do better. It may sometimes seem like even your best isn't good enough. Every now and then it is important to take a step back and look at all the things you've done. Give yourself a pat on the back. Now keep hustlin'!
6. "That's the real trouble with the world, too many people grow up." -Walt Disney
Thankfully, we have our friends to constantly remind us that it's okay to take a break from school work. It seems like the real trick here is to remember to be a little kid every once in a while. How about a trip to Disneyland?
7. "The difference in winning and losing is most often... not quitting." -Walt Disney
Fall five times, get up six. Failure is sometimes inevitable, but with every failure you learn something. If you are determined to accomplish a goal, you will get there. Give it time. And remember... don't quit!
8. "The way to get started is to quit talking and start doing." -Walt Disney
It's easy to say, "I'm going to stay on top of all my school work this semester." All college students say it to themselves, and for the first few weeks we stick to it. As soon as the big assignments start rolling in, it gets harder and harder to keep up. Before you know it you are starting an essay the day before it's do. Just start. If Walt procrastinated, we probably wouldn't have Disney.
