Getting an Education

Milestone- Have my own magazine

To get to the point of owning my own magazine i would have to go to college and start as a regular photojournalist for a company. After a while i will start to make connections with people which would help me get a magazine. The education i need for this milestone is a bachelors degree in journalism and minor in photography. The steps that i can start taking now is start researching what it takes to have a magazine and finding the right people to help me with it. The amount of time i think it will take me to have my own successful magazine is about 8-10 years after college.

I believe that i have set reasonable goals for myself, they are not outlandish or to far stretched. To write a career plan it makes realize the actual process, and the amount of work that i would have to put in. some people might engage in this type of activity because its their passion and may have always been there dream.
