“Keep your most important desires secret. This prevents unwanted comments from others who may be rivalrous, or afraid of losing control over you, or limited in their knowledge of what is possible. Our minds are fragile in the sense that a discouraging word can cause us to give up and quit instead of pursuing our life’s plan and purpose. When we tell envious people what we are planning to do, it gives them a chance to cultivate doubt in our minds. No one needs this. Keeping our heartfelt desires sacred and secret until they manifest allows a necessary buildup of divine power.
Telling others what we intend to do, and bragging about it to impress them, dissipates the power, just as holes in a garden hose reduce the water available at the nozzle. Thinking about what we desire, and imagining it attained, increases our desire, which increases our motivation to act and ends our procrastination.”
Terry Cole-Whittaker, in “Live Your Bliss”
