I'm just trying to be a well-rounded Martial Artist. So I train every day to make that dream a reality. I guess I lost my sight, what I need to do is focas on the style I'm learning now. Instead of constantly trying to see ahead.

Focusing in on your training and looking ahead should never have any kind of conflict. You have a goal, so stick to it. What you need is to learn how to prioritize your task. Your goal is not your greatest enemy here, and definitely not the "looking ahead" part.
You need to have a goal, and your goal is to be a well rounded martial artist, so your task is to plan out how you will get there. Give yourself achievable time line, let say "First three years to achieve BB in TKD, spend 2 years in BJJ, spend 2 years in Karate, Spend 2 years in whatever". Plan it out and stick to it.
You need a lot of money to start a school that teach "Martial Science", so you also need to figure a way to get that funding, its a business. You need to learn how to get funding for your business, if you are to go with a loan, you need to be able to present and sell yourself to the financial institute, let them know why they should lend you the money, should you decide to not go with a loan, you need to figure out a way to come up with the money.
No drea/hope/goals are too big to be achieved, how you get there is the important part, and from your discussion with othres, it appears that you want to achieve everything TOO fast.
Also, to be a successful trainer, you really need to have an attitude to convince your student on mind training and why they need to carry a good learning attitude. You are ultimately responsible for the well being of your student, they are a mirror of you. Its a big responsibility.
Of course, you don't have to care about any of these if you only care about training good fighters, in which case, its not ART anymore...
