i dont love gray
Thank you. This article was very helpful. Since most of us play alone, online, and not in a club, we have to figure this stuff out ourselves, and are ripe for quick solutions and hype marketing.
It would be great if you could follow with some guidance as to how to proceed. Does one get a coach? If so, how to choose one. If not, what steps should one take if they want to train seriously?

Thank you for this post! As someone with a cheat mark on my account, I see a kindred spirit in the purveyors of the snake oil! lol!

Lies 1 and 3 are literally the basis of ChessMood.

I am using the wood pecker method, it is a cold shower in to know what hard work is. It is 1128 challenging puzzles which I have been doing 5 hours a day. It is actually pretty cool, though not fun.

Really solid post and an important reality check for a lot of players. The reminder to be skeptical, focus on real work, and not fall for flashy promises is spot on. Even if not everyone agrees with everything, the core message is definitely worth hearing.

The main issue I'm running into with regards to this article is that it's very hard to find good chess resources that have the same level of polish. I'm the type of person who likes to learn by doing. Sitting there and listening to a lecture is a problem, but if I'm actively engaging with the content in some way (such as through some kind of interactive chessboard), then I feel like I pay more attention. That said, even with that caveat there isn't a good directory of free chess material out there for people to find. "If you know where to look" gets buried under SEO garbage and not even being able to tell if said free material is even good. In the end, the advice I think I really need is the best ways to train for free or cheap.
