My dreams are so big and I try my hardest to stay close to them but everything in front of me goes the diffrent way because of people and I try so hard not to hate them but that’s why I feel like I don’t like forming close bonds cause I’m tired of allowing people to ruin my goals and dreams

It is common to feel like the people in your life are standing in the way of your vision with 'realistic' advice or emotional demands. This often happens because dreams are inherently fragile and require a specific level of protection that most people are never taught to provide. When you share your goals too early, you risk having your trajectory derailed by those who do not see the vivid vision you are working toward.
Research indicates that revealing your plans too early can trigger a premature hit of dopamine in the brain. This creates a false sense of accomplishment, which effectively saps the motivation and energy you need to perform the actual work required to reach your goal. Your subconscious may urge you to hide your plans to prevent your dreams from being talked to death before they are even born.
Protecting your dreams from dream crushers does not require you to become a hermit or view close bonds as a liability. Instead, it involves learning the science of goal protection and setting boundaries regarding what you share and when. By understanding that your urge to pull away is a defense mechanism for your subconscious motivation, you can strategically choose how to navigate your relationships while keeping your future trajectory intact.
