Why you should keep secret goals

Imagine the day when he decided on a change of life. Can't wait to share it with all your friends and relatives. Maybe you can announce that at a party, or share it online for everyone:
"I'm going to lose 20 pounds before Christmas and be fit enough to go running every day!"
All welcomed a job well done.
But wait a minute--you haven't done anything yet?
In a recent speech by TED, Derek Sivers speaks aims to keep secret. According to the research, says someone your goals makes them less likely to happen.
There is some research for this backup.Peter Gollwitzer at New York University specializes in goal-setting. in his article (PDF) intentions to announce (in Studio 3) discovers that people who have announced their objectives to dispense with their faster than people who don't have.
This flies in the face some reflection. many people share their goals and I believe that the disclosure helps keep their responsibility.
Keep you goals for yourself? o ye li announce to the world?
