Rating 1804

Puzzle Rush Score 38

Today I played one game to get my rating over 1800. I wanted to take a good look at the game seeing it was a small rating milestone, so I spent some time analyzing it.

I started the Climb To 2000 series with a rating of 1668. In 20 days my rating has increased by almost 150 points, which is great. It is however starting to become more of a grind and I am finding my opponents in the 1850-1900 range quite challenging to play against.

My rating may drop a bit before it gets higher again. I keep reminding myself that it is more important to continue learning than to worry about what my rating is. Something of even greater importance is to have fun and enjoy chess and growing my knowledge of the game.
