How A Strong Player Changed My Life in Chess

avatar

Everyone has fears. In every instance of our lives, there could be what we called fears.

What about the chess game? Have you been feared of a strong opponent that you encountered anywhere?

Way back in my secondary school, I used to be the representative in the game, CHESS! I’ve been into places to compete who is the strongest. But during the regional meet, I have encountered a very strong opponent which turned to be our schoolmate in college.

What I’ve felt is fear! I had stopped playing chess anymore because I am afraid to meet him again. I only watched their games but refused to join in the tournament for I am really afraid to meet him again!

I considered it as my biggest mistake since then because only if I tried, I might be as master as him. Life could really be lonely and sad if you refused to grab the opportunities around you.

I felt defeated now and then! :(
