I continue to learn from chess on a daily basis. Not just the stuff that happens on the board, but the lessons it teaches about applying strategic thought to the moves made in real life. Maybe the best thing it can teach all of us is to accept that things don't always go according to plan, mistakes will be made and yeah, you lose sometimes.

I don't use engines because the whole point of the exercise is to challenge yourself and try to make the best move in any given position.

If I ever time out of a game, call the authorities--I may have gone missing or worse.
