THE RULES OF WINNING CHESS Part-5

5) Be you r own sternest critic

"Failure is the key to success; each mistake teaches us something. "
Moreihei Ueshiba
One of the most important qualities a chess player can cultivate is to effectively
learn from his losses. To do so requires several abilities, not least of which is
enough humility to admit that one has made a mistake in the first place. Those
who make excuses for their defeats will never even look for the true cause. This in
turn will make it hard for them to eliminate any weaknesses in their game.
Once weaknesses have been correctly identified it then requires willpower to
do something about it. A classic example is that of Alexander Alekhine who lost
his World Championship title to Max Euwe in 1935. For the return match
Alekhine repaired his health by giving up alcohol and went on to win a crushing
victory.
