Setting Goals

My son, the musician, says every serious musician must have their "toolshed time". A time to remove oneself from all distractions, to write and get out the music heard in his/her head. Thought you'd like that.

Unrelated to that little tidbit...

He also suggested I begin this new phase on my art path to develop goals, a six month goal, a five year plan, and even a ten year plan. It would be interesting to get feedback from professionals and students alike, here. Do you set down goals, ie so many pieces for a portfolio, so much marketing, a goal to get more commissions this year than last. A goal to get x number of pieces in x number of shows. How specific do you get?
