Don't leave too much challenging stuff for your future self. If you are not productive now, how could you count on yourself in the near future. Be realistic will never be an unwise policy, right?
Theoretically speaking, high risk high return, that's is what it is. The overoptimistic assumption may make your feel better, however, it's more likely than not simply kidding yourself.
To get in the circle, you need qualified certificates and solid education background, or social network, that's nonexchangeable ticket you'd better acquired.
Your dream won't come easily.
I hope it helps.
