As the time writing this I am about 1780 nearing the 1800 mark and at the end of year I would really like to have 2200 rating but the problem is that I dont know how and where do I start at improving at the game. I don't have a coach or anyone to play irl so I just absorb the contents of social media and I get confused on where do I start do I analyze my own games improve endgames, study middlegame strategies etc. There is way too much stuff to learn and I like that and all but I just feel lost and dont know where to start. Can someone give me some help?
