Here is another interpretation. The group that shared their stories, didn’t work as hard on subsequent exercises because it wouldn’t make them better lawyers. It was an experiment and the outcome has no effect on their real world. If you follow these lab rats for the next 20 years, then analyze their accomplishments (success), it might have some bearing. Pseudo-science….bah

NOT sharing your goals, means you can delude yourself into believing you succeeded. When you didn’t reach the level of your inner thoughts, you just share a lesser version of your dreams. No one knows what you really wanted to achieve!
