"Grandmaster" excuisitly requires OTB play, and there you don't start playing asking stuff like "how to become a Grandmaster?" or "how to become 2000?", but rather "how to become a 1300?" and then gradually raising the bar. And have in mind that a rating like 1300 FIDE is approximately equivalent to 1700 chess dot com, or 2000 LiChess.
At my first FIDE classical tournament when I was 10, I was 1300 chess.com but gained a FIDE rating of 1547. Why was this the case? I had not played chess very often back then and I was only familiar with basic principles and tactics in chess.
Hello Friends,
This question is mainly for Chess professionals. How do I get a rating of 2000?
I am in my late 20s and wish to establish this milestone as a New Year Resolution.
I have seen a video of someone similar who started as a beginner and in two years, was able to get a rating of 2000.
What books should I read?
What games should I analyse?
What openings should I make my repertoire?
What teams should I join?
I am ready to practise 2 hours daily.
Waiting for an early reply.
Thanking you,
Yours Sincerely,
supergminthemaking.

Try to have a good understanding and idea behind your openings. Play a handful of opening at this stage and master them. Make sure you analyze your games and learn from your mistakes.
