What should be proper study plan for an individual to reach 1800 from 1500... How many hours about which topic like endgame or middle game... Im going through silmans endgame at this moment.... What book do you prefer???
There is no set formula , just like learning in school it varies from person to person . Some people will reach 1800 in a year , some people will never reach it in their natural life .
Yes, there is no set formula and it varies from person to person. I went from unrated to Class A the first tournament I played in. [i only had one book and there was no internet or all the help a young player has at his disposal now]
There are some grandmasters who were grandmasters before their 15th birthday [i think this is true]

The basic areas are openings, endgames, tactics, and strategy.
Pick your weakest area and study it.
It's also useful to play over GM games and/or follow top tournaments.

Sergey Karjakin -- the youngest GM of all times -- earned his title at 13 years and 3 months.

2 much 
I believe it takes 8 months, give or take a week or so, if you spend a couple of hours every day on chess forums like this and then spice that up with 2-3 YouTube videos on how to trap your opponent in 10 moves. Every day, so it's really hard work. If you don't have success with this plan, you should consider doing something completely different with your life. Maybe drugs.

Just keep playing opponents 300 points lower and you should get there eventually.

Easier to become a grandmother or grandfather.
For the most part you are matched against players near your playing strength .
So even if you can not reach 1800+ just become as good as you can for your bracket And have fun , If you work hard and also have fun you will naturally get better , getting better at chess is not something you can rush , it’s a lot of pattern recognition and these things take time to sink in and Become part of your intuition . So just have fun , play , do your tactics everyday and you will notice progress every few months if you stick with it

You seem to have a lot of time on your hands, which is a plus. I hear the John Bartholomew videos are quite the ratings increaser.
You should first precisely assess Your level, then find appropriate books. Studying middlegames (strategy and tactics) and endgames You learn more chess than with openings. Polishing the opening repertoire can be left for later. Anyway, it requires serious time investment over a good number of months.
Some forums with analyses are okay to read, and many YouTube videos are okay.

If you are single and without children, just take a few months to study tactics intensively and play OTB chess, and that should do it. If you are married with children, it will take about 3 decades... then you can start to try the above.
