Stop chasing openings. Start mastering chess principles. I’ve seen players improve faster this way. Reach out anytime if you want guidance on what actually matters in chess.

Id set you're goals lower, if you're currently 250 rapid aim for 400/500 not 1000

The advice "switch to a longer time control" is good, but it also implies "use your time and think".

This is your last lost game:

You started the game with 15 minutes, and 37 moves later you lost with more than 16 minutes on the clock. Does this look like reasonable time management to you?
