A new beginning ...

Well, it's time to just start making a daily habit of chess study now, otherwise I'll keep putting it off for more opportune times, which rarely seem to come up.

Current Plan:

Study Tactics Daily, or as often as possible.

I'm working through the Chess School 1a book, I also have the 1b copy as well. These books compose of 1299 puzzles combined.

Unlike my other attempts at trying to increase skill level, simply by doing masses of puzzles, these books are actually designed progressively and orderly. It was the same book used to teach Russian students chess, and was written based on decades of experience if I remember correctly. The first book-set should bring someone up to a 1600 level.

My goal is to get to at least 1800 by October 1st. My rating will be monitored based on online play (likely Yahoo Chess & CTS). This means I have to work hard! If I can finish these books in two months, I would ideally be around 1600, and still require another 200+ points within the following month.

For that, I will use the second book from Chess School, which brings you up from 1600-1700 to 2200 or more so it says. If I am still lacking tactical skill after the first series, then I will re-do what is necessary until I can handle the second book.

Okay, so other than studying so much tactics what else will I do? Play games online. Test my tactic skill occasionally on CTS, and perhaps later on attempt the knight-sight and other board-vision drills.


I have a ton of tactics books. In fact, all but one of the chess books I own are tactics based. When I get in the 1800+ range, I'll likely start reading Lasker's Manual of Chess. I think I'll really be able to enjoy it at that skill level when my tactical skill is pretty solid.

Hey you are alive! Good to see. Those books (1a and 1b) are the basis of the software Chess Tactics for Beginners.
