To those who give a shit,
This phase of my chess training has consisted of deliberately not developing
my formal opening repertoire beyond where it was about six months ago. That
repertoire is being compiled into a book that should be released within two
or three years. Until the book is finished, I am not lifting a finger to
study any openings whatsoever, to force myself to improve the other parts of
my game, and to see just how much of my repertoire I have memorized.
This is a very painful process that one goes through not to rely on their
priy strength, but I believe I will benefit from this in the long run.

Good news Ray, ... you are in the correct way. Next step is stop
playing 1 minute games. Sure if you continue in this way you will be
not long ago +2000.
I only give to you a little advice: forget your opening repertoire
because memorize lines are nonsense and choose lines with no idea of
strategy and endgame is a waste of time. Sure that your opening choices
when you understand strategy and andings will be more consistent.
Congratulation Ray, ... you have started the correct way to improve
your chess.
yours
Antonio
