3.Experts have been advising for years that sharing your goals with other people increases your commitment to them.When you do,you feel accountable.You feel as if you're on your way to success.But it turns out we got it all wrong.
Some psychologists have found that by telling someone your goal,you are actually less likely to achieve them.By giving voice to your goal,you feel like you've taken a huge step forward.Unfortunately,this feeling-called"social reality"-is just a feeling.You haven't actually achieved anything yet.
Saying your goal out loud widens the gap between what you intend to do and what you actually do.It keeps your goals away from your actions.However,by keeping your goals secret,you maintain the drive to keep moving forward.You feel like there's still a lot of work to do.
Telling others your goals is an unhealthy way to seek approval,according to Dr.Robert Anthony."By announcing your goals,you will lose lots of valuable energy needed to achieve them,as well as get negative opinions from those who wish to control you.They dislike seeing anyone laving more or doing better than they do,"he explains.
Saying your goals usually shows that you are fantasizing success.Another study found that merely fantasizing about a positive future might reduce your ability to find problems and make good plans.Don't get fantasizing about  success and expecting success mixed up.When you fantasize,there's not always a basis in reality.When you expecting success,you are confident in the result based on the actions and skills you've developed so far.
Thus,you know what to do the next time you feel like opening your mouth about your exciting new ideas or goals.Meanwhile,Michael Hyatt,a psychologist,points out that,while this probably works well for a single person,it may not be the best advice for organizations.If a leader's role is to inspire the organization to work towards some aims,secrecy doesn't seem to be productive.

28.What do we know about"social reality"?C
A.It is a real situation existing in life.
B.It refers to some facts happening in society.
C.It doesn't help you reach your goals.
D.It means you have done something successfully.
29.Why is telling others your goals not a good way to seek approval?B
A.Because it wasters your energy and time.
B.Because not all people wish you to become successful.
C.Because you are likely to change your goals easily.
D.Because nobody will pay attention to your goals.
30.The difference between fantasizing success and expecting success lies inA.
A.whether there is a basis in reality or not
B.whether you are confident or not
C.whether the goal is shared or not
D.whether there are good plans or not
31.What is Michael Hyatt's suggestion for a team leader?D
A.Keeping the team's goal a secret.
B.Making the team's goal known to the public.
C.Preventing the team members from fantasizing success.
D.Sharing the team's goal among the team members.

For Ella,her life had changed as well.She had learned something about who she was,about what she could achieve.She ran her fingers again over the scar,the physical map of the person she had become.
