Agreed.
Improving your situational awareness... so that you NOTICE that your Queen is under attack, or that the opponent has walked into a Knight fork... will make a tremendous difference at the sub-1000 rating level.

Ngl the only reason I am 1,000+ is just analyzing my games and learning from my mistakes, don't blunder, I also know like no openings so you definitely can get 1,000+ plus without one, just learn basic opening principles, like developing your minor pieces, center control, and king safety
Play 1. d4 since you’ll learn about position chess and how to manouvre in closed positions.
