How should I try to like rapid more? I’m always playing 3 min and 1 min but recently I’ve started on my rapid grind. I just want to know how I should try and enjoy rapid as much as blitz. (yes ik this sounds dumb but I’m too tired to make it better ;-;)

Why would rapid need reflexes? Rapid is 10 min+

Hey sigma, when i started to play chess here, i only played Rapid. Now since i dont have so much time, i play only Bullet or Blitz since Rapid is 10mins and some ppl just need too much time for a move and my patience dries out. I tried to play Rapid in style of Blitz but its just impossible, when the opponent takes time to think. So i try to do Rapid only when i rly have time and can concentrate. If you see that its too draining for you to play Rapid, then try to switch from one option to the other. That helps me atleast. Cheers :)

Wait....how do u play rapid daily? I can only play it in the weekends, or when I have time in the weekdays. It's not because I don't have time, but simply because I don't want to. But then this quote here says: Good opportunities do not appear out of thin air, you have to make 'em and take 'em. I wonder how consistent u are....
