Logarithmic planning

1 day (today): I’m going to sketch a paper about the science of fiction (a fictional science).

10 days: Within a tenday, I’ll write it up properly and see if I can get it published in an undisclosed student-run philosophy periodical.

100 days: The next hundred days, I’ll concentrate on being an excellent student and a passable office worker.

1000 days: Within the next three years, I hope to have produced a Master’s thesis to be proud of, perhaps even something publishable. Hopefully, I’ll be able to continue studying beyond the Master.

10 000 days: The next 30 years, as I see them now, will be devoted to exploration and mastery of virtuality. I’ll write books and make presentations to document and communicate what I find. If at some point I’m able to make a really good animated documentary series about virtualism, my life will be complete.

100 000 days: Even though my life might be completed 30 years from now, I hope I’ll live to be 300. If I’m lucky, I’ll be saved to disc and live forever, digitally.
