I think I'm improving

Once I think about it, I've noticed that about three years ago, my standard rating hovered around the upper 1400s. At around one year ago, my rating jumped around the lower 1500s (around 1530). Then, a few weeks ago, I've noticed that hover-point was the upper 1500s (around 1590).

So why do I post this?

Just to share my observation with you all; to share a revelation that playing lots of games (and doing my daily three tactics trainer problems) does help you improve (especially if you play against computers, which I do, where you always have to be quick on your feet).

I also post this to ask a question: is this rate of improvement particularly fast or normal for my training level?

u know what i did..just tactics training  for two good months.. i jumped from 1400 to 1600 ... owo after that dint have time to pratice much .. still my ratingis around that ..remember yr tactics and mine were same right .. now look at mine :D

Most of the problems i could able to solve bec i have seen it before ..but it helps me to recognize pattern s . now i could create threat on my own ..but i  am totally sick in openings .. now trying to have good opening for black that  could create much tactical threats owo now trying to learn more mentor lessons ..but not getting time ..

Your training level is just playing games then?  3 tactics a day is almost nothing.

Some people stay the same playing strength for years.  So I guess your progress is pretty normal considering.

What do you mean?

UPDATE:

My rating, which used to hover around the 1590's mark, is now hopping around the 1630s or 1640s. What an achivement!
