Slowed down on chess recently as I realize exactly how difficult the MCAT will be…

What do the #chesspunks think of Freestyle / 960 / Fischer Random chess? Seems intriguing! Never played since I’ve got enough issues with the original position 😂

I tend towards studying and sitting too long with a tactic. I have today off, and I’ll use it play some blitz to just PLAY the game 😂 Chess therapy of a different sort…

I keep trying to orient to “the process is the goal” and the “rating is a stop along the way.” Much easier said than done! It’s straight tough to make that mental switch, but that’s part of the work too! Choosing our thoughts wisely. So, keep going!
