"Derek Sivers "

"Keep your goals to yourself."
3 minutes 15 seconds

After hitting on a brilliant new life plan, our first instinct is to tell someone, but Derek Sivers says it's better to keep goals secret.

He presents research stretching as far back as the 1920s to show why people who talk about their ambitions may be less likely to achieve them.

Are you a talker of goals, or a doer of goals.

Is a boastful person in early recovery in "danger"?
