Try to learn some simple openings and in game make sure you have all your pieces covered including the ones that cover other pieces. And also make sure yo count captures and not go into an exchange that isn't at least the sams value

Oh, of course! Balancing life and chess, the eternal struggle. First, quit your job and relationships—those are just distractions from the 64 squares of true happiness. Who needs "bills" or "emotional connections" when you can study the Sicilian Defense at 3 a.m. instead?

Second, invest in a clock. Not for managing your time, but for watching it slip away while you analyze yet another lost endgame. Time well spent, right?

Lastly, remember this: life is chess. Every bad decision is just another blunder, and all you can do is hope your opponent (aka life) doesn’t checkmate you before you grab that stale, cold coffee.

But hey, on a serious note, consider scheduling blocks for chess practice and life tasks—actually treating them as equals. Learn to say “no” when one tries to monopolize your time, and find joy in small victories both on and off the board. You’re playing for the long game here. ✌️
