My Featured Journal Entries
"Being the last journal, I thought I would add some thoughts about the entirety of CEO. CEO has without a doubt created an impact on me in various ways. This impact is able to be felt every day when I go to school or am in public talking with adults. I feel as though CEO has prepared me to excel in college or anything else that I will do. I have made some new friends and countless connections and I gained some new mentors. I have been exposed to aspects of life and business that I probably would not have until much later. I really enjoyed CEO and I will remember its lessons and experiences forever."

"Connie Houlihan was such an uplifting person and was full of energy and passion. You could easily see her excitement and enthusiasm for CEO and I think that she was a really big refresher and motivator. I think the timing of her presentation was great being in such a busy and hectic time of the year. She has an incredible background and so much knowledge about what it takes to be successful."04/26/2017
"Like Weber’s Clothing and Jewelry, Wright’s Furniture has been in Effingham County for a long time, 128 years to be exact. Like many other furniture stores, Wright’s started as a furniture store and funeral home in a very accidental manner... The way that they have been open for so long and become so famous is because of their dedication to quality and service. When you buy something from there, you know that you are getting a quality item and you will be well cared for. Wright’s does a lot to make sure you get the piece of furniture or flooring that goes best with your home."

"The owner of Candle Art, Phil Niemerg, was a very interesting and intelligent man. Before we looked at the facility he shared some advice and the story of his business. The piece of advice that stuck with me the most is if you cannot do what you love then do what you do not hate. Then, when you make enough money, you can find what you love and do it. Another piece of advice came from his early work experiences. He said that when you get a new job, talk to the older people who have been there the longest because they can teach you the most. He stressed the importance of always learning new things which is how he came to do what he does now."
