Just recently , I've been unable to win any games. I don't think my skill level has gone down , but my brain is just not focusing any more on anything on the chess board, I'm missing my opponents tactics , even when they are completely obvious and I'm miscalculating regularly.
I was curious to know if anyone had any tips for pulling yourself out of a slump like this and whether I should do some lessons and some puzzles brushing up on my basic skills , or let my mind rest and come back to chess in the future.
What slump?
oh, you must mean that tiny downturn in your recent rating...
