Let's Break Through 1000.

My aim in chess is to defeat anyone below 1000 with ease and confidence. But as of now, I am way behind a 1000 rated player. Why is that so? How can I plan to achieve my goal with 15 minutes a day dedicated to chess?

15 minutes a day is not a lot, especially when playing games. 10|0 games by themselves can take a maximum of nearly 20 minutes to finish. Blitz is much worse to play, as you don't have much time to think.

The minimum time control I would recommend is 15|10, because you're able to think a lot longer. The longer you think, the less likely you will blunder.

Before you make a move, look ahead as much as you can. Also think about what your opponent is thinking of doing. "If I do this, he can play (insert thing), then I can play this, and he can play (insert thing)." You get the point.

When it comes to tactics, particularly practice hanging piece tactics and mate in 3 (and less) tactics.

I see that you don't have a Premium chess.com account. Because of that, you should use Lichess. If you don't have an account, create one. After that, do the following:

1) Hover over the section called "PUZZLES".

2) Click "Puzzle Themes".

3) Find the following tactical themes: Mate in 1, Mate in 2, Mate in 3, and Hanging Pieces.

4) When you click on a tactical theme, it groups them from "Easiest" to "Hardest". Start with the easiest section and then work your way to the hardest section.

Note: Doing random tactics will help, but your progress will be slower. The reason is because it will take you longer to familiarize yourself with tactical themes.

Hope that helps.

Well, I already play 20+0. I hope I can manage 15 minutes apart from that. But not more.

You can conceivably end up with more total playing time by playing 15|10 than 20|0 as the former adds 10 sec to your time at the completion of every move...

Improving Your Chess - Resources for Beginners and Beyond…

Oh well, I know about increment. And you already post that 'Improve Chess' link in at least one o of my forum topics before.

You don't want to try to win a 20|0 game in a certain amount of time. That's just asking for a loss. You need to be able to take your time.

I am sorry, but these are some vague suggestions that I don't quite understand. Would you mind giving some specific ones?

You talking to me or Exotic?

They're just saying to play longer games so you can think longer on each move and calculate further. 15+10 is a good staring point. I suggest 30+0 after you breakthrough 1000.

Well, I can show you regular instances where I thought 2 minutes and committed a blunder. 20 minutes is a huge time. I do have enough time to think. And often the move I take most time for turns out to be the game losing blunder. Is time-control really the problem? My best rating was with 5+0 control. I paid heed to these suggestions and shifted to 20+0 now. But nothing is improving.

I have answer for that. And that answer is frustrating. I can't recognize patterns, can't think a move ahead, and my board vision is very poor. The thing is, none of it seems to improve over the course of time.

Here, at move 11 I took almost 3 minutes. I was thinking about 11...Ng6 or 11...Qxa5+ or 11...Nc5. Then all on a sudden I saw that my bishop on f5 has no retreat square so I wanted to free h7 square and moved 11....h6. Firstly I never saw my best move 11....Nxf2. Secondly, I never saw that my pawn on e5 is undefended that white eventually takes with 12.Nxe5.
At move 12, I thought double checking the queen was not a bad idea. Apparently that was not a good idea either.
And finally, at move 14 my brain never processed that a2 pawn taking b3 knight means a file being open.
Now, what are your suggestions for me?

Learn and apply the most important principles of chess. - (core of my teaching)
Always blunder-check your moves.
Solve tactics in the right way.
Analyze your games.
Study games of strong players.
Learn how to be more psychologically resilient.
Work on your time management skills.
Get a coach if you can.

1) "I have answer for that. And that answer is frustrating. I can't recognize patterns, can't think a move ahead, and my board vision is very poor. The thing is, none of it seems to improve over the course of time."

"I can't recognize patterns"

"can't think a move ahead"

"and my board vision is very poor"

These things are all related. By studying tactical themes, you will be aware of patterns you've never seen before. Studying tactics will help you to think more than a move ahead. By being more aware of patterns and being able to think more than a move ahead, you improve your board vision. Of course, there are other things you need to do to improve your board vision, such as what @ChessMasteryOfficial said: "Analyze your games."

2)
"The thing is, none of it seems to improve over the course of time."
"My best rating was with 5+0 control. I paid heed to these suggestions and shifted to 20+0 now."

You've played 4,425 more blitz games than rapid, and your rapid rating is over 100 points higher than your blitz. Why? Because you, who I'm assuming are like most people, get better by not playing blitz, but rather slow time controls.

Another important thing to mention is that playing blitz a lot creates a very bad habit (for most people), which is that they always play fast in slower time controls. Playing faster than you want to = playing on impulse.

Lastly, you've played 10 rapid games today, which is insane. Start playing way less rapid games. Play 1 every other day or something.

Hope I answered your questions.

i myself am hoping to break that when playing 24 hour game play it like a 3/5 games way to fast on each move its hard to sit back and really look at the board when the clock is ticking even though I have all the time in the world -- there is still pressure to make move -- espe ially when you see the move , but don't really see the next move after that or his second move after your second move -- its a hard cycle to break but I trying--- wish you luck in your 1000 rating quest -- I had be happy with 500 at this point -- but that's not going to happen soon --- again slow down look look and then move , wish you luck,, now if I could take my own medicine

1000 isnt that hard...if were talking rapid/blitz- hmu- happy to look at a game or 2 of yours.

Based on your games and what I’ve seen you play, I’d really recommend you working on some puzzles! This website has plenty of resources! Puzzles, the daily puzzle, puzzle rush, puzzle battle, and even custom puzzles! And have you ever tried out aimchess before? They have, not surprisingly, more puzzles! They also have things like blunder prevention and intuition trainer, which will help. But really work on spotting tactics that you can use and spot them when your opponent tries to set one up!

My suggestion is to read several books that present master games along with their thought process. A few weeks with those will be more helpful than trying to learn in your own by playing other beginners.
