By nature, I am a Dove. I love to try and calculate the position until I could solve the problem on the board rather than just relying on a "hunch." Unfortunately, due to playing a 3 minute time control for a number of years, and playing highly tactical players, the Hawk side of me started to grow until it became so big that I now have hopes to one day Morph into Kingcrusher(be an excellent hack attacker).
I'm afraid I cannot feed my inner Dove for the time being because the allure of the hack attack is calling me by name? I hear the call when I wake up, when I go to sleep I dream of it, and though out the day I am always reminded of it.
On a serious note I was told by others higher rated than me that I have learned good tactical ability, and need to play more aggressively, and get away from playing closed or positional structures, so I am now getting an opening repertoire that will help me achieve open or tactical positions rather than closed or positional ones. Though this process, I know I will come against Doves that will thwart my efforts to keep the game tactical and less positional, however, I will at this time also hone the inner Dove inside me and use this time to get better at my technique.
Later I will work more on my inner Dove, but I think because of this setback I will forever be a big hawk. Maybe 60% Hawk and 40% Dove. Or 50% 50%, something close like that.
.. Remember ; The 'opening' you choose ; Doesn't define you as a person ; It's merely, a 'proxy' expression, of some strategy ; You're 'regurgitating', from someplace, else ! [ ;
