The Power of Self-Belief: Lessons from Pixar’s Founding Story and Overcoming Rejections
This is a short story . I was just reading this book by creative inc , by Ed Catmull . It reminded me of this short story below
Believe in yourself. There is only one U in the entire universe 🌈.
I want to tell you this story behind Pixar, there was a guy named John Lasseter who was employee of Disney and he wanted to create 3d movie but disney used to make 2d and Disney asked him to resign out of frustration (nobody likes change) . At that time Next was not formed.
John Lasseter asks Steve for investment in an investment event for his 3d movie in 1980s. He shows a few sec clips to him which he had made on his own. Steve likes it and him a $100k check and this guy makes the first-ever 3d movie named Toy Story. This was how Pixar was formed.
What I learned is You are unique in skills and expertise and only a deserving can see value in you. “Heere ki parakh johri ko hotii haii “
I have also been rejected by 1194 companies till now and now I m not looking for a job. I can’t beg everyone for a job. I m grinding and improving my skills.

I will always remain a big fan of Pixar Animation Studios and The Walt Disney Company for making my childhood awesome 😊!
Happy week everyone!
