Why Sharing Your Goals is Holding You Back

Hey It’s Rae,

Avoid the false dopamine hit of telling your goals to people when you still haven’t achieved them yet.

Because here’s the hard truth, talking about your goals can trick your brain into thinking you’ve already done something.

And that’s Dangerous.

You’ve probably felt it before…

You tell someone, “I’m going to start a business.”

Some people might think you’re asking advice from them, they say “Are you sure? It doesn’t seems like suitable for you…” That’s the worst.

But most people will respond, “Wow, that’s amazing! You’re so ambitious!”

And suddenly, you feel accomplished.

You haven’t actually done anything yet.

But your brain just gave you a little dopamine reward, like you did.

And that’s why most people get stuck.

The false Sense of Progress

The moment you start sharing your big plans, you get a hit of validation.

  • People praise you.

  • You feel good.

  • You feel motivated.

(Don’t ask why I know all this, because i tried before, and that’s a hard lesson)

But that motivation? It’s fake. It’s like the cloud in the sky, it’s there sometime, and you can’t catch it.

Because your brain doesn’t know the difference between talking about success and actually achieving it.

It’s like your brain knows all the cry, happen, exciting as the emotion, but it doesn’t know what is positive emotion, or what is negative. That’s how your brain recording events.

So instead of putting in the real work…You stay in taker mode.

  • Telling people about your next move instead of making it.

  • Brainstorming instead of building.

  • Seeking approval instead of results.

And then, months later, you realize you’ve been running in circles, still stuck in the same place.

Sound familiar?

Why Real Winners Move in Silence

Think about the people who are actually winning.

They’re not out here announcing every step before it happens. They’re doing the work.

They know that success doesn’t come from validation, it comes from execution.

Here’s How to Escape the Trap:

Instead of chasing the dopamine rush of telling people your plans…

  • Keep your goals to yourself until you’ve made real progress.

  • Track actions, not intentions. Don’t celebrate ideas. Celebrate execution.

  • Let results do the talking. When you share, share from your experience, not just ambition.

Because at the end of the day, no one rememvers what you said you were going to do.

They remember what you actually did.
