If you're saying, "I will, it will, etc," then it's best to use the future tense.
For example, I will be a musician someday: "Algun dia, yo sere musica."
The conditional applies to cases of, "I would... but..."
For example, I would be a musician, but I'm scared: "Yo seria musica, pero tengo miedo."

You would not use the conditional form typically - it does depend on what you are trying to say. Future is your safest bet - or possibly subjunctive.
