6. Go and Get What You Want. Don’t Wait
去追求并得到你想要的，不要等待。

“Cinderella believed in dreams, all right, but she also believed in doing something about them. When Prince Charming didn’t come along, she went over to the palace and got him.” - Walt Disney
“灰姑娘相信梦想，但是她也相信要为之奋斗。当白马王子没来时，她去了宫殿才得以遇见他。”——华特·迪士尼

Forget wishing. No one is handed his dreams for free. You have to fight to achieve a dream. Expect to struggle. Ask yourself what price you’re will to pay—dreams always have a price. However, it’s not all doom and gloom. Setting goals, making plans, and working toward your dream is wonderful. Enjoy the journey. When you’ve achieved a long-held dream, you find that while you appreciate the achievement, the memories of the journey are what make you smile.
别许愿了。没人会无偿让出自己的梦想。要想实现梦想，你要学会去争取。你要预料到要和困难做斗争。问问自己你准备要付的代价——梦想总是有代价的。然而，它并不是无望的。设定目标，制定计划，朝着梦想去努力，这是很美好的事情。享受这个过程。当你实现了梦想已久的事情后，你会发现，虽然你很欣赏你的成果，但是让你微笑的却是追求梦想过程中的点点滴滴。

7. Do Your Best Work. Don’t Worry About Money
尽你最大的努力，不要担心钱的问题。

“Do a good job. You don’t have to worry about the money; it will take care of itself. Just do your best work—then try to trump it.” - Walt Disney
“好好做。不要去担心钱的问题；它会自然而然地得到解决的。只是尽你最大的努力——然后试着超越它。”——华特·迪士尼

You’re poor. You can’t afford to take time off to get another degree so you can get a better job. The answer is to do the best you can, right where you are, and cling onto your dream. Life will give you what you want, when you least expect it: do your best work, every day. Results will come.
你很拮据。你没法抽出时间进一步深造来去找一份更好的工作。答案是去尽你最大的努力，在当下，坚持自己的梦想。生活会在你意想不到的时候给予你想要的：每天都尽你最大的努力，有付出就有结果。

8. Don’t Quit
不要放弃

“The difference in winning and losing is most often… not quitting.”- Walt Disney
“赢和输的区别在于，大部分的时候….不要放弃。”——华特·迪士尼

You can’t succeed at anything without failing, and failing a lot. Failure is the way we learn. Here’s what Thomas Edison said: “The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense.” Everyone fails his way to success. Look on your failures as speed bumps in your success journey, and keep going. Don’t quit.
如果不经历失败，不经历很多次的失败，你是无法成功的。失败是我们学习的方式。爱迪生曾说过：“要想完成任何有意义的事情，都需要三个必要条件：第一是艰苦的努力；第二是坚持；第三是常识。” 每个人都是通过失败走向成功的。把你的失败看成是通往成功路上的减速带，继续前进，不要放弃。

9. Be Grateful
心怀感激

“The more you are in a state of gratitude, the more you will attract things to be grateful for.”- Walt Disney
“你越经常心怀感激之情，就越会有更多值得你感恩的事情发生在你身上。”——华特·迪士尼

What are you grateful for? We all have endless reasons to be grateful. What do you take for granted? Chances are that you’re blasé about your health, your comfortable home, your loving family, and about your job. Even if you have none of those things, you can be grateful for being alive. Studies have shown that gratitude improves your health, your relationships, and makes you happier.
你因为什么事情感恩？我们都因为各种原因而心怀感激之情。你把什么东西视为理所当然？很有可能你对自己的健康状况、舒适的家、充满爱的家庭和你的工作已无动于衷了。即使是这些你都没有，你也可以因为活着而感恩。研究表明，感恩能改善你的健康状况、你的恋爱关系，可以让你更加幸福。

10. Do Your Best
全力以赴

“Why worry? If you’ve done the very best you can, worrying won’t make it better.”- Walt Disney“
为什么要担心？如果你尽力了，担心不会让事情变得更好。“-—华特·迪士尼

Worry is anticipation; worry can help you to improve and do your best. However, once something is done, distract yourself from concern about the results. If you’ve gone through three interviews for a job, there’s nothing else you can do. Worrying about whether you get the job is pointless at that stage. Only worry when it serves a useful purpose.
担心就是期望；担心能帮你提高水平并让你尽力而为。然而一旦做了某件事后，不要让自己分心去担心结果。如果你找一份工作时通过三次面试，那能做的你都做了。这时担心自己是否能得到这份工作是毫无意义的。只有在担心有益的情况下才担心。

So, there you have ten Walt Disney lessons. Apply them to your life. They’ll help you to make your dreams come true.
这就是华特·迪士尼的10堂课。把它们用在生活中。它们能帮助你，让你的梦想成真。
