Announcing your plans makes you less motivated to accomplish them by Derek Sivers

in #dlike5 years ago

Shared From Dlike

It is in most humans' psychology to share their big ideas with others.

I said, "most humans'", because some people tend to keep their secrets and big ideas to themselves. Some of them because of some selfish reasons and some because they are mature enough to understand the need for secrecy before achieving something worth sharing.

In this article author, Derek Sivers, has discussed in detail, why we should keep plans to ourselves unless we achieve a big part of them, personal and collective psychological effects of doing so, etc.

In this article Derek Sivers has referenced several researches on the topic which have been published since 1933 to date.

I hope, this would be an interesting read for you too.
