Learning Chess is fun
Just like a body that needs exercise to keep itself fit, the mind too needs something. For a body it is physical exercise which can be done using tools available and for the mind the tool is Chess that gives work to the mind to keep it active.
​
Chess helps in learning patience (the most important), developing concentration (focus), thinking creatively, improves problem solving skills, evaluating skills, how to plan strategically and also mainly on pattern recognition. It improves reading skills too. Thus, learning chess involves in exercising the brain to its fullest extent. Science says that, one hardly use 25% of the brain power they possess and chess helps in making use of it as much as possible.
Ambition is the first step towards Success

And Success requires - Risks + Focus + Patience + Attitude + Sacrifice + Discipline + Hard work + Persistence + Determination + Self-confidence
One have to face these ones before Success - Failures + Rejections + Sleepless nights + Disappointments
​
So, do start & stop not ' till the GOAL is reached '
