When it seems impossible to make progress in chess. Chess is basically a game of will. Without a continuous effort can not win a game. This effort is an act or expression of will generated by a motivation that drives us to do unpleasant and tiring tasks in order to achieve that is to play "good" chess.
But if you do not feel compelled to make the necessary effort, if one is not well motivated, not put into action and our knowledge or ability to choose the play reached accurately. Without motivation we can play like 200 rating points less than it really belongs to us.
too often is given the status of the mountain man, a player during a game has a continual series of ups and downs, making plays of varying quality and getting results as well. Suddenly makes a good play, then a weak, by a lack of consistency in the effort made on every play. That is maintained at its optimal level, not low nor high, the results would be much higher and thus, without gaining game, but getting consistent at its highest level, your strength and your rating would play a huge leap in quality.
persist in the effort is most complicated, so we often feel we do not progress and feel like giving up the fight for excellence and settle for playing at a low level. It is on the verge of achieving great development but not this step is not to persist in the effort. Overcoming
laziness when playing chess is a task worthy of the work of Hercules, as we yield to our weaknesses. In chess you must first overcome himself, and then then we can beat the others.
How will educate? Many authors have devoted their talents and efforts to write books to guide readers in this regard. Since the will is the key to all success is a core issue for anyone who wants to progress in an activity.
Self-motivation, self belief that the effort is worthwhile, positive thinking, clearing the mind of negative garbage, are the product of an ongoing effort and if we do that, we take great effort to consistently improve our results and stop being a mountain man with ups and downs.
With a little that we stand our goals, we can motivate enough to persevere in our purpose, creating a virtuous cycle, but if we do not have well established goals, we do not work and began creating a vicious cycle of failure and discouragement.
probably ever heard of a person who does not make sense for her life. It is a very common unfortunately. If you happen to lose our partner, disagreements arose about who knows how or why love goes away almost imperceptibly, or something that for many years we have built collapses, we feel bad appreciated, or have great family loss, or fail in a project that had so much faith, suddenly it seems that life has no meaning for us.
When a child or young once his mother scolded him because he did not appreciate the significance of the gift that came to him without knowing the efforts that involved? The saddest thing is to find a person who feels his life has no meaning. How
find new meaning for our life? As an architect, his work seeks to harmonize the natural environment and achieve greater beauty, a teacher shows how to insert the shy child, the rebellious teen in the school community, in the same way a film director seeks to reflect social reality to the drama experienced by a human being, you have to look at everything in order to see how the parts are inserted. The content and meaning of our life can be built upon to appreciate the relationship between the whole and part.
The attention given to the whole, allow an adequate understanding that each party plays. Know the interrelationship of everything and allows the formation of new meanings, the application of knowledge to reality.
Returning to the motivation, it is interesting to know what some psychologists have studied the subject, as McClelland (1953) and Atkinson (1964).
They created the so-called theory of McClelland-Atkinson's need achievement.
The aim of the McClelland-Atkinson theory was to explain why some individuals are more motivated to get an achievement than others. Athlete's intrinsic motivation is seen as a reason to get. The interpretation from this intrinsic motivation, however, is the motive to avoid failure. When faced with a task such as sports, face a conflict of approach - avoidance. We are motivated to approach and participate in our desire to succeed, but we are also motivated to avoid participating in our desire to avoid failure. Our decision to participate in individual sports is determined by the relative strength of these two factors. This is shown in the following equation:
= achievement motivation to want to succeed - the fear of failure.
For McClelland & Atkinson, achievement motivation is a personality trait. For some of us, the desire to succeed l outweighs the fear of failure, and says that we are high in achievement motivation. For others, fear of failure is the most important factor, and it seems that they are low in achievement motivation. This personality trait is not the only factor affecting motivation. The situation is also important, specifically the probability of success and the incentive for success. Thus, even If athletes are low in achievement motivation, if the probability of success is high, and rewards for success are great, they are likely to be motivated.
Human motivation is complex, and have been raised a number of theories. One important difference is that between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. Contemporary research shows that intrinsic motivation is the most important factor for most participants in the sport, and in most cases adding extrinsic motivation reduces rather than enhances total levels of motivation. In a classical theory, Maslow has a wide range of human motives in an attempt to describe the whole range of human motivation. The main use of Maslow's approach is in the illustration of the width of reasons for participating in sport.
modern theories of motivation are narrow in scope and focused on the cognitive aspects of motivation. The theory is currently the most influential theory of achievement orientations Nicholls. This distinction between athletes who focus on mastery of skills and those that focus more on their interpretation in relation to others. The first is widely agreed to be the most successful style, and psychologists have a role important to play in the adoption of domain orientations. Two other approaches have emerged as important in working with athletes who are trying to improve motivation. Attribution theories are concerned with the ways in which the athletes decide to run. For the training of new allocation, we can help athletes to develop healthier powers, ie to attribute failure to effort rather than ability.
Self-efficacy is the individual's belief in their capabilities. The success of the reaction, verbal persuasion and training for re-allocation can increase self-efficacy at all. Of course, all traditional theories of motivation assume that high levels of motivation are a good thing. A radical alternative approach considers the damage that can result from very high levels of motivation, including problems of burn.
The Soviets worked on the theory of creating a winning environment, with a systematic reasoning on which coaches and teachers play a key role. This system only works if the athlete or player is backed by an organization or the services of a highly qualified coach, as in Soviet society. In today's society is more difficult to create such an environment it does not always win Players have the support of a qualified team, which is usually costly.
For an adult player is required to build habits of self motivation and continuously strengthen their sense of meaning in life, especially if it was in its infancy with a motivating education in this regard.
Working with text and audio motivational and positive thinking may be the only recipe out of a slump or stagnation. For the acquisition of knowledge is not as important as the motivation to make the effort to put knowledge into action in the game. More important is the strength of will that knowledge to progress in chess.
Tactics is essential in chess and effort to carefully observe and detect the tactical possibilities is very demanding and he just met by strong wills and trained, so the coaches' insistence that his students made many years to root the above habits.
spoke of the relationship at all with the party, to know the interrelationship of the whole and the part that allows the formation of new meanings, the application of knowledge to reality.
In chess the whole, is reflected in the strategic understanding of the principles which govern the principles are the guiding beacon. The part is given by the obstacle will be overcome tactical play by play. The tactic is the soul of chess, because we can "see" reality in an instant. When the player loses the proper relationship of whole and part, incredible mistakes paid a great cost. For self motivate
we create a series of steps and design a comprehensive program to ensure that we achieve, it is the engine that makes us go and deserve that we give the most attention.
We take care of our mind of negative thoughts and strive to maintain positive thoughts, because we are what we think. We need to build our faith in it and feed it. If no faith, no more than a recipe to stay afloat: Act as if it was. Life continually
slaps us, but instead of letting us defeat should act as an incentive to go forward, we have no other to persist and survive. In life as in chess, one row against the tide and advances or current pulls us back. It is impossible to keep, or it progresses and evolves, or go back and involution.
