Every time I get to 1298 I lose a game and it takes extremely long to get back up to that rating.

improve

do puzzles, train, study, read books and watch videos, practice endgames and middlegames, etc, and as you improve your rating will reflect it

it really depends on each player, but for most people at this level you need to start working on your strategical play. Also always keep improving at tactics im 1800 and I still miss plenty of tactics.

Take a break once in a while and play when you’re prepared and focused. If you play too much you’ll get tired and lose focus which can cause a losing streak. I actually just made 1300 yesterday for the first time just playing once or twice every other day or so. I’m sure you can do it too 😉

Always check your intended move is no blunder before you play it.
Hang no pieces, hang no pawns and you are 1500.

Hey!

Well the short answer is don’t chase your intended target chase a target just past it (like 1350). It’s easier to get close to a target than to hit it, so buffer it always helps this. However even better, don’t chase a rating, chase improvement and your rating will follow it! What’s your chess study and practice routine like? I can help you develop one if you want. Have fun with chess and you’ll get to 1300 soon, don’t psych yourself out!

Get to 1298 and stop playing. Then, next day, play until you get to about 1318, to give you a cushion. Then stop. You're losing because you aren't concentrating on your game but on your 1298.

Ok, I got to 1297. I'll play tomorrow and try to get to 1300.
