When I first started playing chess all i could think about or talk about was chess, but recently  i have noticed that My condition of the chess bug has gone away. Now my question to the community of chess.com is how do i metaphorically infect myself with the chess bug once more so i can feel the same passion I did for chess a year ago?

Thank you, KFC

Look Professional games?

Practise with ChessMaster? (if you have one)

Try puzzles? Chess Tactics

Play Vote Chess?

I thought that if I bought some books it would help but it really has not. =[

I second the tactics/puzzles recommendation.  They're like little chess appetizers when you're not in the mood for (or don't have the time for) a full meal.

 I found out that taking a full sabbaticall from chess works for me! After it chess is always fresh for me! Laughing
