Hi Phil,

Thanks for sharing this!

I think it's generally true... I do feel that, personally, when I publicize a goal, I am less likely to stick to it. I think it's for the reason that Derek Sivers said - you get some satisfaction already when you announce it, and thus (after announcing) you feel less "need" to actually accomplish it...

However, I do think it is important to write down your goals, and track them. It's just that you don't have to share them with the world... But you do need to have them written down where you can easily see them, to remind yourself of them!

Best wishes,

Dien
