The recap of my first real chess adventure

This weekend’s chess tournament is over.

I played 9 games over the past 2 days. Six games on Saturday day and three on Sunday.

Aside from those games I also met and befriended many international students—including a group of Irish students who went to an Irish pub both evenings, so you know how that ended up.

My first day was a rough one.

I only won 2 games out of the first six I played. That should’ve been more and I underperformed on multiple occasions, making mistakes I shouldn’t have.

I’m not used to full days of playing at a relatively high level, so that might be the cause of it. Or maybe I just wasn’t focused enough for some reason. Who knows?

But what I do know is that I couldn’t let it bother me.

The only thing I could do was come back the next day, refreshed and ready to go and give it everything I had.

And give it everything I had, I did. I won three out of the three games that day, giving me a final score of 5/9.

An impressive score I’m proud of—and more than I expected.

Accomplished only because I didn’t let my past mistakes bother me. I knew I couldn’t change what happened. But I could still affect how things will turn out.

And that’s a skill everyone should have.

Especially people like you and I. Because in our business? Things will often go wrong, more often than you’d like to imagine. And there’s nothing you can do about it.

The only choice you have is to get back up and go at it again.

Speaking of.

Maybe you’ve tried giving this email business already before. Perhaps things didn’t work out for you back then. That’s alright. Those things happen. Stronger yet, it probably wasn’t your fault. You didn’t have the right information available to you, or you were listening to the advice of the wrong people, ensuring your endeavor was doomed to fail.

But none of that should hold you back from trying again and doing it better this time around.

And what’s the best way to go about it this time around?
