Baha, that doesn't surprise me at all. It's worth noting, for those who don't click through or who don't read the whole article you linked, that Sid found a study conducted that does support the model that writing down goals makes you more likely to achieve them.
See some of the data for that here: http://cdn5.sidsavara.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/researchsummary2.pdf
To be exact it makes it more likely that you think you achieve your goals.
In general it's not hard to find studies supporting any claim. The important thing is whether the studies actually provide reliable evidence.
