The Daily Wake Up Micro Podcast
Business:Entrepreneurship
For the past ten years I've written NFL Playoff Predictions on my personal blog. This year, after the first week of games, I gave it up. After ten years of consistently predicting NFL Playoff games on my blog I stopped. Why? Because the return (reward) on my investment (time) no longer held value. So instead of quitting, I walked away.
Last night when prediction of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers upsetting the Green Bay Packers and the Kansas City Chiefs winning big over the Buffalo Bills came true, I started to write a post on social media to let the world know I had only one wrong pick this entire playoffs. The only pick I got wrong was the Seattle Seahawks vs. the Los Angeles Rams.
I looked at my post then thought to myself, why do I feel the need to do this? Is it to receive accolades from others? Who cares about the accolades when I know in my heart that I made the right predictions this year.
It feels like a lot of us post on social media with an "I told you so" feeling to it. Especially now that Joe Biden is our President. The question I have is why is it so important for others to know you're right?
Do they really need to know?
