At last. Something clicked in my head ! I am seeing things better. I am doing endgame studies tons of CTS tactics, blitz on FICS, chessmaster drills (undefended pieces under time attack) every day for 4 hours last 3 weeks. I even learnt every square color to improve visualization.
And now, suddenly, I can not lose ! 30 games in a row against 1200-1400.
Nice 😛

I noticed that ( no tournaments), instead you beat up on the 1200-1400 players, there are those that would consider that sandbagging!!
