I notice you play a lot of blitz. Why not focus on standard? This way you have more time to think about your next move and analyse the other's move.
I'm a beginner myself and I will stay far from blitz as possible :)

This will remain true no matter what you do.
Do tactics drills, play some slow chess (not just bullet/blitz), and take advantage of the free computer analysis of your games that chess.com offers. At 780 I guarantee you are missing big opportunities and making mistakes that you never realize.
For example, in your most recent game (vs AnimalFarm), on move 9 you could take the black bishop with your queen (not your pawn), preserving a pawn fortress you could castle behind. Also look again at the tactical sequence starting at move 21. Knowing what you now know, what could you have done differently?
Super Cool. Really appreciate it, I have tried computer analysis... I check that okay, I rather try looking my mistakes first. I play tactics alot, still some are pretty difficult. understood I lose agaisnt stronger player, I guess I just hate losing
there is tactics trainer in chess.com...will give u 5 per day 2 solve wid solution if needed for a free member.
Go through ur old games &see where u went wrong...will let u know ur mistake.
solve a lot of tactics...will definitely improve..u may also want to check "chess mentor" in chess.com... :)
Don't play blitz if you are under 1300 because it ruined your thinking process. If you are above 1300 you are allowed to play blitz for fun. Blitz would not improve your chess, except maybe to test opening game and combinational fision
Thank you for all the comments, once again, I really appreciate, I started to try someone of what advice was given to me. I understand the tactic trainers, I love that actully... I still dont know how to use chess engines to help me review games or how to review games.
