Recording what you expect to happen and comparing to what actually happens is the only reliable method for calibrating judgment. Without a written record, hindsight bias rewrites your memory of what you believed, making genuine learning from experience impossible.
The ability to see clearly — not optimistically, not pessimistically, but accurately — is rarer and more valuable than most technical skills. Calibrated perception compounds into better decisions, and better decisions compound into better outcomes at every timescale.
If your schema is correct it should make accurate predictions about what will happen next.
