"Telling people what you want to achieve creates a premature sense of completeness. While you feel a sense of pride in letting people know what you intend to do, that pride doesn't motivate you and can in fact hurt you later on.
When you write down or think about your intentions, there's a gap between where you are and where you want to be. The compelling need to close this gap helps you to act on your intentions. But when you let others know about it, the gap closes because you artificially feel the same way you should after completing your intentions.
The main takeaway is this: You're better off keeping your thoughts and plans to yourself if you want to get things done. The next time you want to complete a goal, put your head down and get to it, instead of telling everyone around you."

Native Americans have known this for over 10,000 years. Don't blather and foam at the mouth. Don't tell everyone what you're going to do. Not everyone has your best interests at heart. Know that going in and know that when you get there.
I've been here long enough to read these declarations. You never hear from them ever again after the first day. They've let the wind out of their sails before they ever get started. Their minds believe that they've accomplished it and move on. You've got to put the pressure cooker on and light your own fire.
