- Psychology is a big part of chess
- You are responsible for where you are in life
- You learn from failure
- Logical creativity
- Chess helps you enter a flow state.
- Problem Solving
- When unsure, take aggressive action
- You can be down pieces and still win the game. Sacrifice for your goal or your goal will be the sacrifice.
