How I got to 2000 elo in Chess.com

Greetings friend,

I know the game of chess is a very difficult one. It requires calculation, intuition, and speed to win in chess. Many chess players often give up or have spent a long time stuck in the same Elo range. As a 2000 advanced(-ish) player of the game, I decided I could give my advice to sub-2000 rated players and help them achieve this goal, too. With that in mind, here is how I got to 2000 in under 2 years of playing chess. I will post one tip at a time so it's not too much.

1. Learn Your Openings

The opening phase often sets the tone for the game. If you play aggressively in the opening, you will have attacking opportunities. If you like to have a solid position, then you will get exactly that with a solid opening. Here's where I find players make the error. They play openings to simply develop the pieces, not to create different imbalances on the board. For sub-1000-rated players, play to develop your pieces, and don't worry too much about what I'm about to say, but those from 1000-2000 would benefit greatly from this. Here's an example:
