What are you wanting to do in chess wise in 2025?

Goal Tips

  • Use Process based goals. It is better to make the goal play 100 Over the Board games than get to rating 1200.  Playing 100 games will help you improve and focuses on the path not each bump in the road
  • ADD some Fun, Travel to play chess hustlers in NOLA, Read Fire on the Board
  • Involve others - Challenge a friend, you are more likely to do things when you and a friend check in weekly
