Do yourself a favour and keep your goals to yourself.

This is true, studies have shown sharing an incomplete goal reduces your focus and motivation, as if you’ve already achieved it.

I find that if I post my high level goals publicly, I am more likely to complete them so people can see my progress. Anyone else?

You are only accountable to yourself. 99% of goals are to impress people you don't even like. My only metric is to be a little bit better than my previous self, no matter how slow I go to achieve that.
