\"Everest.png\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In two previous<\/a> articles<\/a>, I wrote about my desire to live a completely digital life. A digital lifestyle is when all of your income generation doesn\u2019t depend on a location. Preferably through a business (although freelancing and a few jobs would allow you to go digital), this would mean you can live anywhere in the world, work whenever you want and have near total freedom.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, most people don\u2019t have digital lifestyles. Even if you managed to earn a stable income that wasn\u2019t attached to a location (not easy), you would still need the skills and initiative to take advantage of that freedom. How many people have the gumption and ability to live in foreign places without knowing the language or culture?<\/p>\n

From an outside perspective, a digital lifestyle appears to be an improbable goal. It certainly isn\u2019t impossible, and there are people who live it today. But it is certainly a lot harder than working a stable job from 9-5 and paying mortgage payments for a 3-bedroom in suburbia.<\/p>\n

Improbable goals can be hard to maintain motivation for. A digital lifestyle isn\u2019t the only improbable goal you can have. If you\u2019re overweight and have failed diets before, how do you get the motivation to lose the extra 30 or 40 pounds? If you want to start a business, you\u2019ve probably heard that 80% fail in the first five years. How do you overcome those odds?<\/p>\n

Less Hype, More Reasoning<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve never been a fan of pump-up techniques for motivation. I don\u2019t think deluding yourself should be a prerequisite for self-improvement. Instead, I strive to find perfectly logical reasons why my seemingly improbable goals are worth my enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve found there are three big reasons why many seemingly improbable goals are still worth giving your full attention to. If you understand these reasons you can still be a dreamer without being reckless.<\/p>\n

1) The Value of Getting Halfway There<\/strong><\/p>\n

Most goals aren\u2019t an all-or-nothing event. Many improbable goals are worthwhile, even if you can only accomplish them half way. Using my first example of a digital life, even if you still needed a job, a part-time business could offer you more financial flexibility. I\u2019m not completely digital yet, but I\u2019m still enjoying the benefits of the moderate success this blog has had.<\/p>\n

Often, when you work towards improbable goals, you won\u2019t quite make it (at least, in the short term). But you can still enjoy the benefits of halfway success. Small progress can still have its rewards, so it still makes sense to pursue those improbable goals.<\/p>\n

Health, finances, habits are all areas where halfway improvements are still meaningful. If you can remind yourself of these smaller victories, it can give you the motivation to keep striving for the bigger win.<\/p>\n

2) Are the Odds Really <\/em>Against You?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I often ignore pessimistic opinions about how likely achieving a goal is. If someone tells you that only 0.1% of the population has a black belt in karate, does that mean you have a 1\/1000 chance of becoming a master? Of course not. Probably 98% of the world hasn\u2019t even studied karate. Just by signing up for a course you put yourself into a small minority.<\/p>\n

I try to discount odds which ignore my internal motivation and persistence. Instead of comparing myself to everyone, I compare my odds of success against people who have the same level of drive as myself. Everyone has different motivations and an overwhelming amount of people don\u2019t have clear goals. Don\u2019t use those people as a basis of comparison.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, the odds aren\u2019t lying. Becoming an NBA player is a truly improbable goal because many of the hopefuls do have determination and drive. When the odds are against you, try to look for creative solutions that separate you from the pack.<\/p>\n

3) Embrace the Possibility of Failure<\/strong><\/p>\n

If halfway victories are meaningless, and the odds are truly stacked against you, I use failure itself to motivate me forward. By this, I mean that failures aren\u2019t the worst-case scenario. Striving hard towards an improbable goal and failing gives you mental assets and training you can use for any other goal.<\/p>\n

When I run this blog, I realize that many other people are also trying to make it. Getting into the Technorati Top 100 would put this blog in the top .0003% of all blogs. That\u2019s certainly low probability by most people\u2019s standards. I also know that the percentage of successes is still low, even if I discount the unmotivated, unfocused bloggers just creating free accounts.<\/p>\n

However, even if you look at a pessimistic picture like that, you can still be motivated. Running this blog, even if it doesn\u2019t catapult to huge success, has taught me a great deal. I\u2019ve learned business skills, writing skills, communication skills and personal skills. All of these I can take with me to whatever challenge I face next.<\/p>\n

Hard Work Makes You Lucky<\/strong><\/p>\n

The surprising thing is that it doesn\u2019t take a lot of luck to move yourself into the top 5% or 1% of something you care about. When you find the motivation to work hard towards an improbable goal, it starts becoming more likely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
