Yea, it's been my experience too that chess reveals what it means to be human. My favorite lesson is to beware illusions of certainty. I've been incorrect so many times when I thought I understood. As humans, it's terribly easy to be wrong when we're so sure we're right. Nice post, ab121705. 🙂

The lessons from chessin' are stop messing & start addressing in a session with no depression just refreshing aggression. 🙂
I have learned lessons about myself from chess. Like if I get all caught up in my own plans and schemes and ignore what is going on around me, I am likely to get buried.
Like if my ego gets the better of me, and I think I've got it, I usually fall on my a**.
Like sometimes I have bad days and stuff just doesn't go right; mainly because I am not focused on what I am doing.
Like there is ALWAYS a LOT more to learn.
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything similar. .........
