Personal Timeline (Joshua Eskra)

By jteskra
  • When I was Born

    When I was Born
    I was born in Kansas City, Missouri at the Research Hospital.
  • I started a lawn-care company

    This was the beginning of my company that has opened many doors for me and is the reason I am who I am today. At first it was just an idea in my head that I would throw around the dinner table and my parents weren't sure if it was a great idea. I took my money that I have saved up from birthdays and Christmas to buy my first lawnmower and a couple hundred flyers. Then after a very rough start, Eskra Lawn Care became a large enough business for 2 full-time employees.
  • I bought myself my own car

    My mom, brother and I drive down to Arlington Texas to buy my car. It was one of the happiest days of my life because I got to see all of my years of hard work pay off and all of the long days and long hours and missing parties and limited time with my family finally turn into something tangible that I can look at everyday and relive my lawn-care service and love for it.
  • Sold my Lawn-Care Company

    When I sold my lawn-care service all of my hard work for 4 years has had payed off. I make a couple grand when I sold it, but the feeling of someone else wanting what you have created is a feeling that I cannot put it words and love to think about to this day.
  • Started A Ticket Re-Selling Business

    I started a ticket re-selling company because I needed a way to continue to keep making money, but on a bigger scale. I am now dealing with thousands of dollars at a time, rather than hundreds and I enjoy taking risks and seeing the reward pay off in the end. Making money is my passion and is what I eat, sleep and dream about and hope that this can one day lead to bigger things.
  • Graduate High School

    I am super excited to graduate high school and get onto living my own life, outside of my family and starting a career of being an entrepreneur full-time and make money and live where I want to and live the life I want to.
  • Go to Tampa University

    I cannot wait to go to the university of Tampa. The unfortunate part is that I have to go to JCCC and get my associated from there because I don't want a bunch of college debt. Tampa is one of the highest ranking business schools in the nation and Florida is somewhere I want to live. It can also open up countless opportunities for my future and my life.
  • Start A Boat Cleaning Buiness

    While attending the University of Tampa I want to start a boat cleaning service for the massive yatchs that come in and out of Tampa on the daily to help minimize the amount of college debt and add a revenue stream to my ticket company. Money is the leading force behind my life and I want to make as much of it as possible.
  • I want to buy a Lamborghini

    Lamborghinis and exotic cars have always excited me and peaked my interest since I was a little kid. It has always been my dream to have a lot of exotic cars.
  • Have a massive house

    I want a gigantic house that I could get lost in because I would then feel like I have made it in life and can finally relax and enjoy life.
  • What does My Timeline tell about myself?

    My timeline tells me that I want to be a successful businessman in my life and I want to pursue careers that enable me to make money.
  • How different would my life be if I changed one or two timelines along the way?

    My life would be significantly different because I would still be driving my moms car and would have a regular job like everyone else. I love how I have lived a different childhood than the majority of other kids and I hope that it will all pay off in the end,
  • How flexible or fixed is my future?

    I like to think that I have a plan set in stone for what I want to do in my life, but something else may come along way down the road and change what I want to do in life and change my entire life. I do hope to have a family, but right now my career is going to come first so I am able to give my family the best possible life I can.
