Learn to play chess

“I first learned to play from the internet one day after browsing through every board game I could find when I was younger. It took me 2 weeks to actually learn due to other distractions like cartoons music and yu-gi-oh [...] One day when I was bored I played the program on its normal level I lost so I bought it levels down a notch and lost again then I played it on its lowest level and lost again !!! and again and again and I got sooo frustrated with the entire game but unlike other beginners I didnt quite becasue of it I actually wanted to jsut win one game until after 2months of harsh losing I finally won againt the easy and I felt relieved then I played the normal level and beat it after my second try and was overjoyed I actually never really felt that happy in anything else before then and that ignited my passion for the game for the continuing years.”

“I wasn’t born with 1500-level vision. I started like many others — in chaos. At 600, chess felt like a puzzle I couldn’t quite solve. I’d move a knight here, a pawn there, and boom — blunder! Sometimes I didn’t even see the checkmate coming. But I didn’t give up. I climbed. Step by step, move by move.”
