I dont know what to say, my goal of reaching 1000 Elo in chess is finally done. I've been stuck on 700-800 for so long and after i reached 900 i was just climbing and climbing. And then my last Match before 1000 i blundered my queen, got to sleep and won my final 2 matches, and the very final match with a Brilliant, could not make this shi t up.
What really helped me was going from 10 minute games to 15+10, i got way more time thinking and dont had time pressure. I think that was the key for me to get to 1000, but ofcourse playing every day, doing puzzles and watching the slowrun from gothamchess helped also alot.
I dont really know what my next goal is, i think its just playing more and trying to stay between 1000-1100 and slowly trying to improve, maybe get to 1200 or 1400.
Have a great day guys, stick to the grind, achieve your goals.
