Jul. 19th, 2021 01:45 amSome statistics about my training on Chessable:
- 178 courses on the dashboard. That’s a ridiculous workload, I know. But, as I’ve mentioned before, I become more efficient when there’s more to do. So, from a psychological standpoint, overloading my to-do-list means I really get more stuff done!
- 38 of those, I actually *finished*. Considering I’ve been on Chessable for 64 days now, that’s 1,7 days per course. Pretty efficient, I’d say – though, of course, many of these courses were free and very short. (Of course, I didn’t do the same amount of work every day: most chess was done on the weekends, with only a bit of evening nerdery before going to sleep otherwise. I have other things to do during my workdays… It's just that I spend the downtime others relax in front of the TV doing chess instead. LOL)
If we only look at the “big” courses I’ve finished, I was, fortunately, *still* efficient (at about one “big” course per week, that is, per weekend). Here’s a list of what I did! (Just ignore if you're not interested in the finer points of my training schedule.)

...as you can see, I'm pretty ambitious. XD
