This week the Adult Improver Series continues with another inspiring guest. Twenty eight year-old Stjepan Tomi\u0107 (creator of the\xa0Hanging Pawns Channel\xa0on Youtube)\xa0learned the rules of and fell in love with chess only a few years ago.\xa0Since that time he has not let a full-time job or a girlfriend (his life currently includes both) interfere with his drive to improve at the royal game.\xa0Stjepan details for us how he created a nine-year plan to become a Grandmaster, and three years into the plan, he has made steady progress, with an\xa0ELO peak nearing 1900.\xa0In our conversation Stjepan shares what he has learned about how to manage one\u2019s time, deal with defeat, create a Youtube channel, and of course, improve at chess. \nFor timestamps and relevant hyperlinks, please go to the episode webpage here:\nwww.perpetualchesspod.com/new-blog/2019/3/12/episode-117-stjepan-tomi-adult-improver-series\nIf you would like to help support Perpetual Chess via Patreon, please go here:\nBen Johnson is creating Perpetual Chess Podcast | Patreon\nLearn more about your ad choices.
