I was introduced to chess in adulthood by a friend who taught chess in schools. His advice: play 2000 games without worrying about game play or outcome. Worked great for me.



We have the same advice in go. But it's lose your first 50 games as fast as possible.

Hey now that I'm reading this, that's exactly the way my friend phrased it as well. Best wishes.
