Know how to start your own business? Entrepreneurship can help.
An Entrepreneur
is a
person who organizes and manages any enterprise, esp. a business,
usually with considerable initiative and risk. They are also people
who have a dream and work to live that dream. Entrepreneurs are
people who will fight through the obstacles to stop dreaming and
actually live their dream.
Just recently, a number of
students traveled to WNCC in Scottsbluff to attend an
entrepreneurship tour. In this tour, students from CHS
listened to speakers who shared schools how they achieved
their dream.
Mrs. Rogers mentioned that
she has always thought that if one puts their mind to something
then it can be done, but the trip reminded her that to be
successful in a business you have to network. "My view is always to
interact with others and get ideas from them because it's other
people who help others become successful," said Rogers.
Andrea Franklin mentioned
that some parts of the tour were interesting and some were not.
Attending this tour has not changed her views on life in her
opinion.
"The bus
ride was fun because Jens got yelled at," said Lindsey Wrage. "I
think the tour was very informational and helpful to young
entrepreneurs." Wrage also mentioned that attending this tour has
helped her see the difficulties in owning her own
business.
Garrett Frederick said the
trip provided good information pertaining to opening a new
business. "It showed me the good things and bad things that can
happen when opening a business," said Frederick.
Jens Johnson gave the trip
a "2 thumbs up." "The trip gave me valuable insight to the maze
that is entrepreneurship," says Johnson, "The tour opened my eyes
to the hardships and rewards to opening my own
business."
With this knowledge,
students at CHS may now begin their journey down the long road to
consider opening their own business.
