Every day is learning. Wise man said.
Who else is agree with this statement? I do.
I think that you can’t be perfect and determined enough to learn all the information in the world. This is kind of sad if you think about it.
It was more than one year ago around this season when I first met with chess. Very weird and at the same time quite interesting what kind of twists life is holding for you all the time.
Before I will dive into the story, I have to clarify why I wanted to play and learn chess. So, at the beginning of 2021, I decided to learn Frontend Development. I wanted to create something that’s help the community.
If you are not familiar with Frontend, it’s simplified the “front view of a website”. By that, I mean that when you are on the Internet and see any kind of website, it looks like that because it’s the frontend. All the website design, the fonts, the colors, the complete and finished product with all the functionality in demand. The other side of the coin is the backend that you as a user don’t see. It’s kind of complicated but related to background server things that do the heavy lifting. This two make the Full Stack Development.
Anyhow, I was into programming and learning day after day. By challenging my coding skills like a super ultimate mega nerd who wants to change the world. I didn’t realize it at that time but something changed in my brain.
One day, on Youtube I came across a video which I found very interesting. There was a girl who was saying “I think we’re gonna do the lesson in like 10 minutes, let me see what she’s up to”. A new window popped up in the video and the mentioned girl appeared on the screen in a very bold swimsuit. I was personally surprised a little bit as I saw a red head porn-looking lady on Youtube in a swimsuit. However, surprisingly enough this wasn’t what really captured my mind during this video.
Two colors, and a board with pieces. What is it?
Chess.
I didn’t know at first what was that all about but I soon found out. I did so much digging into this topic. Somehow, it was very fascinating and mind-blowing for me, therefore with time, I mastered the basics of the beautiful and diversified game of chess.
Now, the question after all that remains in the end. Why?
Why did I want to learn and play chess in the first place?
To get a full understanding of this I want to draw your attention to a little psychology. Did you know that whatever you do and feel on the daily basis can impact the left or right side of your brain?
You have probably heard about that, haven’t you? Well, I have a theory. What if I wanted to learn chess because I have started to learn Frontend Development?
They both need the logical part of your brain. It is not impossible that one logical impulse generated another logical interest.
I guess this is the only logical explanation.
