Another reason that they disclose strategies might be that it makes them feel good about themselves. -- Whoah you have such I pretty girlfriend! How did you accomplish this? -- Well i went to those and those places, worked out at the gym and behaved like a cool guy in this and that way. (he feels good talking about it) Even if it is true, who says it would work for someone else, maybe the real reason for success in this case is just being pretty or rich. The problem is not so much carrot stories, the root of the carrot problem is that some people look up to other people's accomplishments and want it too. It is easy then to see/follow/come up with patterns that have nothing to do with it.
