The authors will tell you to figure out your greatest weaknesses, break each weakness down with root cause analysis, and train your weakest root causes first.

45 is not old. You might not get to be a titled player, but you can surely improve if you want, and have the time. Chin up.

I always say this: pursuing ratings is a hamster wheel. If you’re obsessed with ratings and you’re 1609, you’ll be sad if you don’t improve to 1700 and even sadder if you fall to 1500. If you do make 1700, the cycle merely continues. The numbers addiction is like leveling up in a role playing game or even Candy Crush addiction where higher numbers only buy a temporary high.
Goals should be more concrete, like beating a particular person, learning to play a particular opening, or winning a particular tournament. Those kinds of achievements stay with you. Number chasing for its own sake is ultimately never satisfying.
