Shout It From The Rooftop

Have you ever noticed that when you tell someone you’re going to do something, it suddenly becomes more likely to happen? Whether it's quitting a habit, pursuing a goal, or finishing a project, making a public commitment increases your chances of success. Why? Because once it's out there, you're not just accountable to yourself anymore. You've involved someone else—whether it's a friend, colleague, or even a broader audience.

This isn't just a psychological trick. It taps into our natural desire to follow through on what we say. We all want to be seen as reliable and consistent, especially in the eyes of others. When we voice our intentions, it puts a little extra pressure on us to stay on track, and that added accountability can be just what we need to get things done.

So the next time you set a goal, don’t keep it to yourself. Share it. Whether with one person or many, letting others know will give you that extra push to see it through.
