"... for those that want to be as good as they can be, they'll have to work hard.
Play opponents who are better than you … . Learn basic endgames. Create a simple opening repertoire (understanding the moves are far more important than memorizing them). Study tactics. And pick up tons of patterns. That’s the drumbeat of success. ..." - IM Jeremy Silman (December 27, 2018)

But I would say if you don’t want lessons just play one 15-30 min game per day and take at least 30 seconds to look at the position before making a move. That should help you make the best move and help you get better. 

I disagree with your idea my friend. People who make bad moves need to be shown WHY they are bad moves and WHY a certain move is better.

 

I meant that but I just felt like it was necessary to sat

tactics is the secret. You can use them to astonish the girls in the school that you like, cause you are a cool boy not a nerd

Just play. Reflect on the one thing that made you either win or lose. Repeat.
