Thanks a lot Fair Cat. We're trying to be ourselves. As far as a road map. I would spend a lot of of time learning about the artists you admire. Art History. There is an untold story of the History of Concept Art which can be traced with some effort, and it is amazing to think about. You can learn an enormous amount by attempting to absorb the lessons and takeaways that are offered by the artists and creative people you admire. I did a lot of this kind of thing when I was in art school and afterwards. I read about the people I admired, not only to understand their craft, but to know more about who they were as individuals. To know more about their values, their lifestyle. About the kinds of choices they made. About their mistakes. I seriously cherish the insights I gained as a result of that reading. Look to those whose lives you admire, and find out what it is about those people that makes them who they are. What steers them. Great question. Thank you :)
