##### Although oftentimes I lack discipline in my chess games, I am passionately devoted to constant improvement!

##### To become a master of anything in life, you must adhere to the guiding principles that our predecessors have followed.

##### But on the other hand, you must also maintain a creative edge through your own intuition..you must practice your craft with a critical eye for unique novelty.

Masters are motivated by a passionate devotion to excel in spite of their perceived
limitations. Strict discipline to your skill must be balanced with a creative imagination.
Go forth, and seek to understand every detail in your subject; teach others whatever
you discover.

##### Do you have chess games to share?⏎ ..sharing your knowledge has never been easier.._..just follow this 󠀁[link](https://lichess.org/paste)󠁿 to import a game for analysis.._
