Episode description
Are you constantly comparing your chess progress to that of others? Are four, five, or six-hour-a-day study plans effective for amateur players? I offer opinions on these topics and more. The segments in this episode include:
- The "tournament hall" vs. the "study hall"
- Handling decision fatigue from all the available study material
- The essential areas of focus for beginners
- OTB vs. online strategy
- The comparison game
- Talent vs. hard work
- Is studying several hours a day actually necessary at the amateur/club level?
