Is this "don Juan" stuff? Not to me. Carlos did not write about secrecy directly, even if we can see it around him.
I know another application of secrecy. It's an imaginary apple. If you try to imagine an apple sitting on your desk, it can be very difficult to hold the picture of that apple consistently, but if you use a little trick, you can make it a lot easier.
Just make the apple a secret. Lie about it to someone. Ideally, they will argue with you about it, and make it more solid.
You will see that the mental imsge of the apple will be easier to hold in your mind afterwards.
I'm not "lightly" but I understand the things he's talking about. I'll use "Candy".
