No 5 year plans for me. I adjust minute to minute. Where I am now, I could never have planned for 5 years ago. My best friend used to draw out extremely detailed 5 year plans, and then would get into a bit of a slump when she didn't meet her own standards. If you're meeting your plans, I think it is a fine and admirable thing to do, but if you have have difficulties sticking to a schedule (which I do), then it can only be a punishing and a disappointing process.
