This scares me.
10 years:
Own/Co-own a design firm with at least 3 employees,
Start a family,
Be financially stable (hopefully this will happen before the 10 year mark, I’m thinking 7 years is a more realistic goal)

5 years:
Secure at least 2 residency programs (ideally one overseas,)
Continue work with design collaborative,
participate in  a design-build non-profit,
Have at least 2 reliable/consistent clients for commissions (something like a real-estate developer)
Keep any media up to date
Participate in design showcase (ICFF, etc.)

2 years:
Persistently submit work to design publishers/blog,
Establish or join design collective,
Full-time employment with design firm on west coast,
Hike Mt. McKinley
If above/below doesn’t work out, go to grad-school

This year:
Graduate,
Learn how to knit
Find language for design,
Submit work to competition,
Work with Fix Studio in summer,
Have all design decisions for DP made by end of Wintersession

This semester:
Build killer website
Find music shop to intern with this winter
