How far could I get?

How far could I get with this chess training schedule? In 6 years, what do you think my progress will be?

Here is the schedule, I am sure many people of the forum has seen it before. They are all mostly an hour or two hours of practice.

Mon - Endgame. - Lecture Video (Limited), Chess Book, Endgame Puzzles.

Tues - Middlegame. - Lecture Video (Limited), YouTube Video on Magnus Carlsen's Game (Analysis), Chess Book.

Wed - Openings. - Lecture Video (Limited), Puzzles, Chess Book.

Thurs - Tactics (Pure Tactics), Chess Book to Solve Tactics.

Fri - Strategy, Chess Book.

The story: I have no websites that has guess the move for free and I don't want to download so.. yeah. All of my lectures are limited, soon I will have to search random videos on YouTube on certain positions and etc., my practice is based primarily on lecture videos in which will run out in about 10 weeks. From then I will study endgame positions on YouTube. I have lecture videos on game analysis so I will use that. And for middlegame I am sure there are 1000 of games Magnus has played on YouTube for me and the youtuber to analysis.

However I feel like this is unstable. Am I really doing it right? Anyways sticking to the topic, for openings I will not build an opening repertoire until I am finished my book, I already have opening repertoire from game experiences. I am not rich for all those go to otb tournaments people. Thanks.

Not to be a downer -- but I am a firm believer that with much of chess brilliance, you are either born with it or your not.

And if I sound critical -- I am certainly in the "not" column!  (I was not born with any significan chess skills).

My personal guess (and from my own experience and observing those of others) is that even the most rigorous and demanding of training routines will only improve your ranking  a couple hundred points.

Thus -- even with the most devout of studying -- there is little chance a novice will ever become a Grandmaster (or anything close to it).

The only exception I would make regards age.  Obviously, if you are extremely young it is possible to make great leaps and strides in rankings -- but I mean very young (I would say under 12).  If you haven't shown chess brillance by puberty, you probably never will.

Again, I am not trying to be a jerk, but I think that is just the way it is. (With chess and so many other things in life -- intelligence, sports ability, etc.).  

Obviously, of course, everyone is different.  There's plenty of people who have proved everything I said above wrong!

I certainly wish you the best -- if anything it sounds like a fun way to spend your free time (more fun than work anyways!).

which city do you live in lol?

You have delusions of grandeur my friend . Your chess.com ratings prove your only a patzer.

What does this mean? How old are you and how long have you been playing chess for? Also, "Strategy" on Fridays? Can you please go into more detail about what that entails.

P.S. I don't know why people are being so harsh. I can't see anything that you've said that is unreasonable.

His arrogance and cocky attitude prove he is not 11 years as his 2nd message claims. He is just trolling the forums.

All you new video players tryin to be messlia ford, but do you know melyssa ford drives a honda accord?

She a WGM, but behind closed doors, she do whatever it takes to get the chess oscar award.

the training program looks solid to me. although. there is no targets for time- and you haven't specified playing chess in your program.

along those lines I don't see to much about reviewing games, yet surely looking over past mistakes with an eye to reducing blunders, and applying what you are learning is Huge.

as for "How Far could I get?". there's no set formula for that.  Its bad IMHO to get big expectations, and they can make you fail if you don't rapidly acheive them.

On a serious note, IMO, it's useful to focus on one subject like an opening or endgame.  That way you have time to learn and remember it. If you do 5 topics a week it might get confusing.

What cocky attitude? I don't understand how you've inferred this.

I'm totally NOT getting the ford reference.  googling, I see that melyssa ford is a rap singer.  and thats about it.

Is she's even a player (?)  I saw nothing about her having a WGM.

There's a rap song called "Wouldn't Get Far" about video girls and the title of this topic asks "How far could I get?" and is all about watching videos. My post only slightly modifies the actual lyrics.

Pretty esoteric 

Here is the schedule, I am sure many people of the forum has seen it before. They are all mostly an hour or two hours of practice.

What lectures? What endgames are you studying?  What book? What puzzles?

Tues - Middlegame. - Lecture Video (Limited), YouTube Video on Magnus Carlsen's Game (Analysis), Chess Book.

One of these players; Is one of those 'Great Pretenders' {at chess, among other things}; Where simply 'sitting-in-front-of-a-chessboard'; Does Not, a chessplayer 'make'!  0:

I didn't get the reference, either. In my world, not getting references to rap music (a complete oxymoron, btw) is a BIG plus.

My 3 year old niece says things like that... not knowing what they are exactly, but repeating things in similar social situations is easy.

The OP may or may not be 11, but I think 11 year olds are smarter than you think!

In most people's worlds I think 

maybe he lives in Detroit.
