3 things with me personally: - I notice my blunders painfully often within 3 sec of making a move, and it's not like I'm playing bullet. Sometimes I just get impatient and just want to play intuitively, but I have to remind myself to stay focused, double check my move before I play it. Also, always ask myself why the opponent moved that way, even if it just looks random at first. - Don't overthink: A lot of times I see what I shouldn't do, and then look for plenty of other moves and calculations, and then somehow, and I sincerely have no clue why, I do the first move I wasn't going to do, because I forgot about it in the midst of planning different things. - Always assume my opponent played a good move: A lot of my blunders happen because I don't notice my opponent's blunders. I always assume I need to defend or counter-attack every move (especially late middle game). This also happens sometimes when I try to be sneaky, but my oppont moves in a weird way and I somehow forget that I actually prepared to punish for that move, but it catches me off guard. So yeah, I've had sooo many games with a high accuracy only to end with one bad move. If you're interested I'm just shy of 1500 blitz on Lichess. And if you've read this far, my best chess advise isn't even about how to play, but simply: - Don't play when you are tired or not feeling mentally capable - Take a break after losing and especially don't rush into a rematch. - Don't play when your focus could be lost easily.

it can be very hard to turn off the tunnel vision, especially when you see your plan is working and only a step or 2 away, but you have to take a minute and examine your opponents plans because if they are 1 step ahead of you, your plan will never come to fruition.

When playing chess I always begin by looking for my opponents threats if there's no threats I then precede with my plan. But as Nelson shows most positions don't have an obvious threat so you end up missing a tactic be it for you or your opponent.I like the idea that you should ALWAYS be switching from pushing your plan to looking for a tactic be it for you or your opponent. If anybody seen Anna's channel when explaining how to calculate she never seems to look for threats but instead looks for forcing moves after every move. She's probably unconsciously seeing threats but focuses on switching between pushing her plan and looking for tactics.This idea of switching I will incorporate into my game because like every one I do become fixated or as Nelson calls it suffer from tunnel vision. Lastly if anyone as seen the shortest chess game 1.d4 Nf6 2.Bg5 c6 3.e3?? Qa5+ it's quite obvious now White was simply following his plan to develop his pieces. He most likely saw 3...Qa5+ but quickly saw he could block forgetting his QB was hanging and the rest as they say is history. So good tip Nelson!!

I realize that I really am in no position to question Lasker. BUT-I just beat a 1500 rated bot (after losing twice). Amazingly, I had a winning position by move 16. My mindset was, how do I lose? When I found a move that was "good enough" I played it, Although, it was not the most efficient win-a W is a W! I did not let the perfect be the enemy of the good enough.

But sometimes even when you see that your plan may backfire, you still go with it, you just want to see how it will unfold. Sometimes tunnel vision is fun. Even though it costs you points)
