The thumbnail just being Levi with the only subtitle being "lose" is kinda perfect

Gotham: "you will lose 3 out of 4 games that you play"

Issue:I lose 4 out of 4 games

Wrong, wrong, WRONG! It’s to sacrifice…

Honestly really good advice- as a 1600 I notice this a lot when I’m playing: whenever I let emotions / ego dictate my moves is usually when I rush for no reason and make bad moves- but when I take a deep breath- think properly and not let anything else get to my head- I play way better.

I think this advice is good for tackling everything else in life too

After a painful competition loss yesterday where I blundered a totally winning game I needed to hear this. Thank you

This is the perfect advice, in my short experience in chess, what stopped me going further was pretty much that, fear of losing. I was a 1400 with the momentum, winrate, and motivation to get to 1500, 1600 and probably further with no problem, but the fear of losing stopped me. Now I'm getting back into it and overcoming that was my biggest challenge.

I saw this video right when I was starting to flirt with chess some weeks back. It's stuck with me basically every day and really applies to other things in life, but certainly chess.

I wish I could say being so aware of this stellar and super important advice paid off, but...instead I'm still just afraid to play against other people and get frustrated and/or embarrassed when I lose or get my ass handed to me or make stupid mistakes.

Intellectually I understand on several levels how stupid that is and that nobody cares how I do but me and nobody is gonna laugh at me except maybe a random asshole in chat that I play against or something but I can't get reason to prevail here.

Losing is normal but makes me upset after game

[emmafountain]

I think that goes alongside “learn something from every game”. I used to just play a lot of chess, lose a lot of games, and not really get much better.

I started taking a minimum of 5 minutes after each game to analyze and I went from 900 to 1800 in like 2 months.

This isn’t just good chess advice it’s good life advice

I thought he was gonna say “SACRIFICE THE

[dvoulio]

Thank thank thank you Levy... Deep down we all know that but having it said explicitly with such devastating clarity and finality makes the difference and, like another poster said, if you learn from your losses you're on the way up.

I was watching a Levy blunder compilation video this morning, and now this is in my recommendation. 😂😂

[yoface]

At first I thought it was asking what the single piece of chess was which would be one hell of a debate

[TimezUp]

Think of it like this…. I don’t lose, I learn. Also, if your psychology is weak and you get upset at losing, learn to master yourself and not take it so personally, it’s just a game and we all see death smiling at us

[zacharysherry]

This did actually help me the most. It started with FM Mark "the Duck"... He said something about a fatalistic mentality...

[relaxationmeditation]

No ego. Only growth. Ego holds you back everywhere.

For me it’s time management. I always hear you talk about this a lot. I remember I was like 700-800 elo at the time and I couldn’t really catch where I was going wrong, when then I heard abt that. Definitely what seperates beginners from intermediate level players

[TabbyVee]

Biggest thing for me was: always check for checks, then attacks.
