Can I make positions from my own games into puzzles?

Is there a way to save positions where I made bad moves or missed mating patterns into puzzles that I can play out? As a way of practicing the better moves, learning from my mistakes by repitition.

Just looking at the right moves vs my bad ones in analysis moves doesn't really stick. 

Just put it into a chess.com "insert chess game or diagram" option when posting here. You can try out variations, make notes by commenting on the moves. Here's an example. I decided to go with a typical Scandi punishment idea. You can pull it from games or set up specific positions.

Thank you, I'll try it that way.

Remember, sometimes it's better when you start out to find a good move that you can see and understand easily, than the best computer engine move that results in checkmate the fastest assuming the opponent plays perfectly as well. Like the old saying goes, if you see checkmate vs taking a queen for free, take the queen because your 'checkmate' might be missing something.

Sure, I not aiming to understand a 3000-rated cyborg :-). For now I like puzzles for at least the practice. I might end up with selfmade puzzles that are a bit to hard for me really, but it feels like it should help me spotting M2 of M4 a bit easier. 

Generally at our ratings, IMHO it's better to focus on good concepts like thinking about what your opponent wants to do vs what you want to do, focus on weak enemy pieces and making sure your squares are safe + your pieces are defended well and active, and try to use as many tactics as you can see that are safe to do. Missing mate in two isn't a big deal when we can just keep missing immediate checkmates, but still end up being way ahead in pieces in end game.

Here's an example of me playing terribly, missing mate multiple times, missing a good skewer, but still winning very comfortably due to making good trades and spotting weak enemy pieces. (The more ahead I am, usually the safer I play, therefore leading me to miss checkmate multiple times) https://www.chess.com/live/game/6214019331

Hey, I built a chess tool that helps you actually learn from your own games. Instead of solving random puzzles, it analyzes your games from Chess.com or Lichess, finds your real mistakes, and turns them into custom puzzles you can replay.

It also shows you where you go wrong in openings and which tactics you tend to miss. Everything is tailored to your play style, so you can improve faster by focusing on the stuff that really matters for you.

If you want to give it a try, you can find it on puzzlefinder(dot)site (for some reason it is not allowing me to put the link in, just replace (dot) with actual dot).

I would love to hear your feedback!
