Some of you might ask why does he want to know if we play chess? Just to be clear, it has been decades since I played... I find this is a Motivational Monday post to share with those who read my writings.
Did you know that chess is played around the globe by millions of players? The best part is, that it does not matter what your political or religious views are, the game has the same rules. Many boundaries are crossed with this game it doesn't matter if you are rich or poor if you are same sex or not. It does not matter if you are handicapped or not, everyone can play the game.
Did you know that Ray Charles admitted once that Chess was his passion? Just to be clear, you do not need to be physically strong all you need to do is to be able to think. This question came to my mind, since we have all been talking about AI (Artificial Intelligence) what is the number one benefit of playing chess?
Chess is the great equalizer, it does not matter if you are young or old, black or white, male or female a musician, an athlete or a couch potato it does not even matter if you are a cook or a computer geek. It shows who is smarter and can think and strategize better to win the game. The message is You need to THINK!
I admit I was a good player not a great player, I always thought six to seven steps ahead of my next move. I have used this same strategy in business and in life. How many steps do you think ahead when you make a move?
“Tactics flow from a superior position.” Bobby Fisher
“A sacrifice is best refuted by accepting it.” Wilhelm Steinitz
