When I started playing chess, I couldn't dream of being a 2000, but I actually reached it fairly easy. However, I focused too much on the goal rather than the improvement, and now I kinda hit a plateau. What should someone focus on at my level, how should I train? I don't have a coach so everything I do is on my own.
Any tips?
I would suggest playing in some OTB tournaments (especially fide rated ones), however there may not be many in other countries
But the key thing to learn from 2000 - 2200 in rapid is how to not resign! What I mean by this is that in losing positions, or even just much worse positions, rather than playing the best moves play the most painful moves to deal with. These are often the most active moves
