#23 Should You Share Your Goals? And the Theory That Discussing Your Love Life With Friends Never Works Out
Are you the type to publicly declare your goals, or do you prefer to keep them to yourself? In this episode, our two hosts share their casual thoughts on how they personally approach their goals. Enjoy a real, honest conversation that touches on everything from their relationships with friends to their own distinct personalities.
I prefer to plan my life by working backward.
One of the hosts explains that they love setting clear goals for life and work, and then working backward from there. On the other hand, the other host is a more cautious type who rarely speaks their goals aloud. It is fascinating to see the contrasting values of these two as they discuss how they spend their daily lives and how they map out plans for the future.
I don't really want people to see me working hard.
The reason for keeping goals to oneself often stems from a psychological desire not to let others see the process of working hard. During the episode, the conversation heats up when a shared story about studying for a national exam leads to a discussion about the complex emotions that arise when you make your goals public. The conversation then expands into the desire to succeed on one's own, so please listen to the full episode to hear the rest.
