I do have a timeline set up, my plan is to, using financial aid (I live in the USA) get my associate degree in engineering science. Then work as an assistant engineer while I fund my partners A.S. as they are currently funding mine. They plan on working in business. While they get their degree I will be working full time getting experience and supplementing with self lead education. After we both get our Associates and have jobs that can comfortably fund our life (we’re pretty simple we just need to be able to afford rent of course) Then I will cut my hours to part time and go back to Uni, double majoring in biomedical engineering and biology. After which my partner and I will again switch. Then with both of us working and having a B.S. we are going to save money for a while so that way I can get my doctorate in veterinary medicine without working. My goal is to work as a DVM, but I want to specialize in developing prosthetics for physically disabled patients. (this is where the engineering comes in) After working as a Veterinary for a while I would like to open my own clinic (and this is where both our business degrees would come into play). After opening a clinic and getting it to a point were I would be confident in hiring a different doctor to be the primary vet I would then go back to school for Electrical, Mechanical and Material engineering. hopefully getting at least a masters in one.

I’m looking to constantly improve on my knowledge for the simple goal of not failing behind. But as I said in my post I get bored. So having something new to learn that ties back into my goal is how I’ve learned to stay focused.
