I hereby promise to:

 

·        Spend 100 minutes a week solving tactics problems

·        Play, annotate and publish in the group forum at least one slow game per month

·        Do at least one Stoyko Exercise per week and suggest suitable positions to my fellow group members

 

Should I fail in my commitment, I will face dire consequences (yet to be defined)

I invite you all to join The Study Buddy Group and to post a Training Journal. A hint of peer preassure might help you reach your own goals!

Any Chess related New Year's Resolutions?

Avatar of likesforests

No, but I've hired a chess coach and my commitment to him is to spend 1hr/day studying chess and average 4 standard time control games/month against opponents strong enough to have a good chance of beating me. Similar to a resolution, I guess. :)
