Realistic. This is the honest answer for most people.
SLIPPED

Scope creep-
What happened along the way
The part that is not a joke. Most real transitions land somewhere between 18 months and 3 years. Almost every delay above is something done to you, not by you — the field moving, a filter rejecting you, a reorg you did not vote for. The people who get there are not the ones who avoided the slippage. They are the ones who were still going after it.
Satire, obviously. Not career advice, not a prediction, and not a reason to stop.
