What went well?
- I finished the chessable tactics book Learn Chess the Right Way - Book 3: Mastering Defensive Technique and I started Learn Chess the Right Way - Book 4: Sacrifice to Win!
- I’ve been doing the SayChess Accountability Group. Mostly I am just using it as a way to track my time. See below for the breakdown of time spent this week. I got over 10 hours of study, which was pretty good considering I was on vacation for a couple of those days.
- In Chess.com puzzles I got a streak of 9 in a row. That felt good. Slowing down helped.
What could have gone better?
- I’ve had a hard time winning games this week, losing 3/4 of my games. I have had a hard time focusing.
- I was pretty busy and had a hard time finding dedicated study time.
What will I try next?
- Slow chess. I need to take time on each move. That worked a couple of weeks ago.
- I have a day off this week where I’ll focus on chess!
