Most of us have set a big goal at some point. Launch a company, write a book, run a marathon, eat fewer gold viscrackers at midnight … and then saw it crumbling immediately as the crackers mentioned at the bottom of the bag.
The problem is not that we are lazy or not serious. The problem is that we treat goals such as vague wishes instead of mathematical problems. Math problems Chelsea?! Oh no! Don’t run away. Don’t worry. This is not going on awaking your high school algebra PTSD, I promise.

Enter: Kyle Austin Young. Kyle is not only an award -winning strategy adviser and writer for heavyweights such as Harvard Business Review, Fast Company and Psychology Today, he is also the author of Success is a numerical gameA book that argues: “Hey, you can literally describe your chance of success before you even start.”
Yes. A success diagram. Think of hacking it for your dreams as probability.
Probability hack your goals: success is a figures, with Kyle Austin Young
In the latest episode of the Podcast from Horsepoute, Kyle sat with me to talk about:
- Why most of us fail in big goals (spoiler: it’s in mathematics)
- How you can map the exact steps between you and success
- The underrated strength to fail for your whiteboard instead of for your board board
- Plus his journey that a book publishes with a traditional publishing house, and his PR tips to help you get more pitch -e -mails
One of my favorite moments:
When Kyle walks through me how you can take a lofty dream (such as running a marathon in 90 days) and make a hard figures. In the beginning, the chances seem depressing: only 34% chance of finishing.
But once you start with ‘probability hacking’, or the planning of rainy days, bad sleep, low motivation and food saps; Those opportunities jump to 73%. That shift is great. It changes everything.
Suddenly a dream is not just wishful thinking. Instead, it is a plan with mathematical vouchers. Kyle also dropped precious stones over PR (how to pitch editors at Big Outlets), what he learned from building and concluding a subscription industry company, and why errors are just a different type of tuition fees.
If you ever hold between ‘manifesting your dreams’ and ‘actually doing the work’, this episode is a worthy listening!
Yes, success can be a number game. And if you learn to play well, you start winning much more often.
