Tactics, keep it simple. Do puzzles, play games, and review the games. 2000 should come with time if you do these three things consistently.

I been playing the scotch as white since 1300, never had to change it to make it to 2,000 so neither should you.

Imbalances are underrated!! One of the people who suggested tactics says that they are a “positionally challenged individual”. Tactics will only get you so far and are much slower for improvement. Understanding imbalances gives you guidance during every possible position. The ability to create plans in any position is underrated as heck! If you don’t understand imbalances or even know what that is STUDY THEM
