I don't know. Everything is possible. Sometimes i lose several hundred points in the bullet and have 1300 rating.

Lol.

Yes, of course it's possible.

I've never had any coaching from professionals, and I'm 2350.

I have studied chess books, of course.

What was the question again?... "Can I get to 1300 without doing any work?"

Nope.I mean if I can earn 1300 rating by only learning from online and chessbooks without the help of professionals?

Of course.

I have had zero coaching, and I've never looked at a chessbook. I'm purely self taught. 

Yes, it is possible. Depends how your mind learns.

I study chess very little but I've been playing for a while. can think of hundreds of things more interesting and productive to study if I want to waste time.

Doesn’t take much coaching to lose a bunch of games.

The first few world champions didn't have any professional coach, because there wasn't even such a thing as a professional player much less a professional coach.

How did they get so good? By playing, reading books, analyzing games, etc.

So yes, you can get to GM level without a coach... of course GM is much easier with a coach, but anyway, 1300 is very possible.

You have to have talent to get to really high rating, but to let's say 2 000 (perhaps even higher) most people can get, if they really work hard for it. Now of course, you have to put a lot of effort into it, and not everyone has the time and/or a drive to do so.

So to 1 300, yes it is completely realistic.

It is possible. I never had a coach or spent a penny on chess and I gained over 800 rating points in less than a year when I first started chess :)

The question wasn't "is it possible for me" the question was "is it possible at all" so all I needed was 1 example.

The fact is that many people achieved master level with quite a bit of work, but no coach. 1300 is unimaginably (for most people) lower than master level.

I've got the feeling you're not trying hard enough, OP.
