Yes, these strategies may make you more successful. But they probably won’t make you happy…
I’m tired of people having to obfuscate their goals and downplay their own achievements and activities. I find it to be especially the case for women. (Men get away with bragging and goal-setting a lot more.)
And I think it is amazing and so important to find a group of friends and supporters who will help you get to your goals. How will they know how they can help if you never share?
Very well-written piece. I’m just not sure I agree with all of it.
