Chess and the Mind

Sort:
Whob

It has occurred to me that when I'm thinking in my head, even about the moves and pieces, I lose a majority of my chess games. However when my mind is empty and just stare blankly at the board without thoughts, I can't seem to lose a single game. 

So I guess that's my technique to use the mind at its potential and with concentration, Do you do anything special?

You must be controlled by some puppet master! Thinking "in your head" is healthy, don't give it up.
