Sounds good difficult in reality.
My wife hates my chess time. And my work schedule doesnt always permit my give full concentration to chess. Which is why I find myself playing too quickly when I play games online on my phone. Trying to get some play in when I get moments.

Sounds good
Ok, I’m up for all ideas to reach the 2000 target. Most interesting!

Goal
To get to 2000. Means achieving the next threshold. I have gotten to 1742. Only
To hit a wall. Playing the higher rated players means playing more consistently.

That is difficult when you can't find the time. Or your efforts are not supported.
It seems the sweet spot is getting to 1800. Then playing consistently from then on.

I notice that many have 30 to forty games going all at once. Sounds exciting. Probably
Even saves time. However unless the games are thematic won't produce the desired results.

For those that have phones there are many free apps. I personally use acidape chess
Grandmaster version. For those on the laptop, arena. Shredderchess rates your play, but you have to pay for that version.
