ELO2000+ is easily reachable within 2 years if you have a structured and layered skill development. Openings are just memorization, middle-game is all about tactics and the middle is most difficult skill set, end game is just finishing it off. Currently I'm focusing on end game and being able to finish. A lot of people fuck up at some point and it is an amazing feeling to be able to turn it around and finish them and see them rage quit. The rage quits are the most enjoyable.

I'm a bit odd with chess, where I mostly only practice openings.  I like the memorization and find the patterns beautiful.  I'll focus on one opening and work on it for like 6 months or longer.  I'll play one actual game a day usually.  Tactics kind of bores me.  Endgames are useful when you're playing an actual game.

@Leo Gura 100% mainstream religion is all group think. 

It certainly is.

Mainstream religion is a technology wielded for human survival throughout millennia.
