I Will Know When I've Arrived In The Zone

I'm still waiting for the zone when it comes I will know it this is called strategy in practice for the real game in ratings. Although I lost a practice game for no ratings I did put in my best but the best wasn't good enough I explained to my opponent what I am doing remember it pays to communicate intelligent messages where both opponent and I can benefit. In this way one can make friends and win over enemies or at least walk like a man live like a king and be all powerful like a queen. Being down in the slump is a regular track record for me if I wait it out by playing for no ratings I can get a feel for the game and decide whether I've had too much play or a burnout and then adjust accordingly. A slump doesn't last forever in as much as it seems to be. Writing this blog in chess helps me to see my statistics and where I am or was to where I am going. For instance recording and entering my weight daily from the past months and years shows that I'm making progress by charting the data. You genius types know what I'm talking about and it never takes a genius to know what I speak about. To know that you are headed toward progress is to know your better self. I'm playing chess not because it is easy but because it is hard. Once I achieve and realize a goal has been obtained then will I know I will know sing it to the tune of Whitney Houston there is a song in my heart.
