In this audio file I talk about mastering the mindset for chess improvement.
The duality of doing things to improve and NOT doing things (making mistakes) is a nice way to introduce the topic. I firmly believe that I need to overcome the following in order to improve: making too many errors, lacking confidence in myself, and superficiality in considering positions and candidate moves. Oh, and laziness, too.
