which opening is good for begineers like mee?? 
e4 openings,d4 openings some flank pawn openings , or some other modern sidelines ???

I suggest 1.e4 for White. Italian game, Mollar attack is very strong

Black: Najdorf is very good

This IM is a joke! Nobody in their right mind would recommend the Najdorf to someone that just said they are a beginner. That is like telling a beginner skater to do the Triple Axel. You may be good at chess, but answering questions is clearly a weakness!

I played the Najdorf since I started chess

I'm 8-y.o. boy (3rd grader) with 1860 Rapid Elo on chess.com. I have a plan to reach 2000+ Elo in June this year. How can I improve as fast as possible? Thank you very much!

How to escape 1800?

How can I get over 1700 OTB USCF

I have been stuck around 1800 rapid and my blitz is 1500 but I'd like to reach 2000+ in the next few years. Would you recommend I play against much stronger opponents to learn more quickly? Or are tactics, openings, or gameplay experience more important at my level?

In other words, what is the most efficient way to surpass 2000 rating on Chess.com?

The top players work out a lot.

Magnus is a prime example. He is great at soccer and tennis.
