Winners always NOTATE !!!

One of the best ways to become a better chess player is to subject
your own games to intensive analysis. Studying your games helps
the learning process, thereby becoming the best way to chess mastery.  Always notate your chess matches.
This is a very important part of your chess training program.
You are trying to improve your game, what better way than to dig
into your game and find out what you are doing right and wrong.
Build on the things you are doing right and fix the problems and
mistakes. You must approach your own games from a completely
objective point of view. It is always helpful to get help from a
stronger chess player or chess teacher to help find your mistakes
and good moves. Anytime you learn something about yourself,
you are giving yourself a chance to improve. By learning what
kind of chess player you are, you will know yourself better.
Study anything you do any time you wish to find a way to better yourself.
