How to Make Losing Less Painful In Chess w/ Daniel Lona
About this episode
077 Part of being a chess player is losing many games. But what if those experiences didn’t have to be so painful? To that end, I solicited advice on how to deal with the most difficult losses.
I received feedback from the adult improver community on social media, a handful of chess coaches, and a dash of my insights.
Then, I collected what I felt was the most helpful advice, categorized them, and put them into a 5-step process. It can be used anytime you endure a particularly emotional or upsetting loss.
The advice here ought to help you reduce some of that emotional bite from a loss, as well as ensure you don’t beat yourself up too much over it.
Here’s to making your chess journey more enjoyable!
