I am 2000+ but still feel bad, how can i improve?

I played a bad move in the endgame, a6 was not the way to play

Indeed, @timeisillusion

...a6 was all right, but ...a5, ...Na6, ...Nb4, ...Na6 cannot be right

@WFM Funkmaus on page 1 wrote a very helpful comment.

Anyways, to help with the OP's question, a question you might want to ask yourself is this: To get a coach or not to get a coach? Can I teach myself with all the resources available to me better than a coach teaching me? Or will paying a coach be better and faster than me devising my own training program by reading and listening to other people and putting it into my own practice?

peace of mind and good chess are unattainable ideals. good luck 🙏

@dishearten

I lost peace of mind a long time ago

i feel you.

it's hard to ever be happy with your playing strength - you even hear grandmasters condescendingly talk about their own skill like all the time. it's more about the journey than the destination, perhaps.

@dishearten thanks for your understanding WomanFemaleMale from Rainbow City :D

@no_onecanbeatme Why did you go back with your horsey and didn't move your king out of potential checks

:-) I recommend that you listen to this song at least twice a day until you know the lyrics by heart. :-)

I just wanna be the best

I'm hardly perfect, I'm barely good
Just shy of greatness, ah, ah
I'm heavy metal, I'm hollow wood
Just shy of patience, ah, ah

Me, I wanna walk a little bit taller
Oh me, I wanna feel a little bit stronger
Oh me, I wanna think a little bit smarter
Said, I just wanna be the best

Me, I wanna walk a little bit taller
Oh me, I wanna feel a little bit stronger
Oh me, I wanna think a little bit smarter
Said, I just wanna be the best

I just wanna be the best

P.S. Edit. Sorry, I just noticed that I posted this video in the wrong topic. But who cares ? Maybe it is helpful anyway ?

I actually wanted to recommend that you should maybe practice more tactics. Try to work through the "Woodpecker Method" tactics book. After this book you will either give up chess entirely or your rating will jump up 100 points.
