By the way, this is about my rapid rating.
How to instantly see every tactic?
There is NO instant way to get good. It's all about consistency and showing up, as in everything in life. If you aren't failing again and again and again, you are doing something wrong. To speed up, keep doing lots of puzzles, REVIEW EVERY GAME, ESPECIALLY losses, and try to learn as much as you can from your games. Looking at your profile, you have improved a lot since you started, and all you have to do is keep going. There is no fast-track to chess. Good luck with your journey.
Every time your opponent moves something, think WHY did they play that move, what that piece now sees, what the pieces concealed by it now see. With especially pawns, when they move they can open up lines of attack for pieces that haven't been in the fight for a while. Physically draw arrows with chess.com tools to help you.
To be honest, I've reached 2100 rapid recently and almost all my blitz/rapid games are still decided by blunders. For amateurs like us this is normal. Even sometimes for Super GMs. Ding Liren blundered mate in 2 against Carlsen in a classical game ...
You might need to work on other aspects of your chess.
The reason is that when your overall chess strength improves, your pieces will get better harmony and when you are the one having all the threats, the tactics will turn into your favour.
Steal 1/10 of India's entire plutonium reserve every day for 4 days, eat expired milk on day 5, then stay in the sun for 5 hours the next two days. Finally, cover yourself in grape juice and leap into the ocean on day 8. When you get back on Chess next your rating will be up by at least 600 points.
@Geelse_zot 2100 amateur? Really? It's frustrating for a 1600,1500 rated player like me.
I didn't mean it like a derogatory term.
With chess amateur I mean someone who does not make a living out of chess.
Eat at least 10 Carolina Reapers each day for rapid chess improvement.
Would not recommend….
Develop a solid pattern recognition. It's impossible to become 100% accurate and to be totally honest here 1500 elo players do in fact blunder a lot more times than you might think. I myself am 1500 so I have experience with this lol. There are many, many kinds of tactics and it's best if you introduce yourself to all of them. Expand your resources as much as possible. I like using chesstempo.com for their puzzles because I personally think they are the most realistic ones to occur and develop your tactics better than any other chess website does(remember to at least do like 5-10 of these a day to develop strong pattern recognition). Tactics(and not blundering pieces in 1 move) are 100% everything below 1200 elo and it really isn't much above that at 1500 either. 'Every Single Chess Tactic Explained (Yes, Every Single One)' is my own blog in which I briefly(remember this isn't a hardcore studying tool) cover every single tactic(not just the basic ones like forks) with explanations, examples, and finally puzzles. It is important to introduce every possible chess tactic into your pattern recognition to ensure you don't always miss them in real games. Getting better at chess takes time and it's important to be patient because just like anything else chess is supposed to be learnt one step at a time. Trust me tactics are probably the hardest part about starting to get stronger at chess so struggling is normal but once you learn them than everything else(strategy, attacking ideas, etc) comes to you slowly over time(sometimes even without practice!). After all it's easier to continue building something than to start from scratch.

That was the point of the post lol.(also just trying to make sure people are using that blog and it wasn't a huge waste of my time)

Yes you really put a lot of work into it and it was a great blog!
The thing is, i have worked hard for a year and stopped hanging my pieces (for the most part) and seens through possible one-two tactics (forks, etc., for the most part). The thing is, I can't see them 100% of the time. I lack constistency. Players at 1500 range almost never blunder pieces and instantly see if they're opponent can play 100% of the time. How do I be like them? I have been doing tactics on chess.com, studied some tactics from books for the past few months, but I can't seen to be a 100% accurate. The thing is, due to this I don't feel like playing that many games. For instance, if I lose to a tactic once (especially at 700-900 rating range), it kinda makes me not want to play for the entire day, even then I review my game and decide to play the following day. My goal is to be 1500, but I'm not sure if I'm heading the correct path.
#1. everyone blunders a lot below 2400.
#2. You do not need to see tactics instantly to get better
#3. Every rating range that is higher than yours seems like perfect play to you, but it is most certainly not (I know from experience)
#4. Nobody is 100% accurate
#5. Stop playing blitz if you want to think through your moves
#6. The more games you play the faster you will see tactics
