đź“– Do not give that which is holy (the sacred thing) to the dogs, and do not throw your pearls before hogs, lest they trample upon them with their feet and turn and tear you in pieces. â€”Matthew 7:6 AMPC 

You cannot share your goals and dreams with everyone. Everyone doesn’t want to see you succeed. Everyone is not on your side. You can’t cast your pearls before hogs. They will not only trample on your dreams, but they will also trample on you. They may tell you that you aren’t smart enough. They may not think you are talented enough. It doesn't matter what they think. You have the greater One on the inside of you. You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you. Joseph made the mistake of casting his pearls before swine. He told his dreams to his family, and his brothers almost killed him and eventually sold him into slavery. Joseph had to overcome some hardships because he told the wrong people the vision that God shared with him. The dream eventually became a reality, but it is possible that he went through more than he should have. Be careful who you share your dreams with. Don’t cast your pearls before swine.
