________________>>>>>>>>>>>>> :) Drink some beer. :) Just kiddin'. Don't be too hard on yourself, reading chess books ain't an easy thing to do. They normally have too many variations and are too complex like they're written in another language. That's why we all have them but rarely read them. IT'S EASY TO BE LAZY. Welcome to the club. :)
To put more chess books on my bookshelf. Then I will go through 15 pages of the book and put it away for the next 10 years. And I wonder why I don't improve?
To defeat Touya Akira.
