This week, we discuss how to "Marie Kondo" your chess study plan if you're rated about 800-1200 and you're looking to break the 1400 barrier. You don't need to buy 100 chess books, 25 courses, and join seven different online training programs. A streamlined collection of chess study materials covering each phase and theme of the game combined with lots of OTB experience is probably all you need for quite some time. In this episode, we cover:

  • Why playing is just as crucial as studying
  • How much study material do you need?
  • How often should you study?
  • Using chess study materials appropriately
  • What NOT to study
  • Putting it all together
