I would say for me correct answer is understanding the chess. Use chess masters resources where they have explained everything.

The Chessmaster 10th Edition DVD chess game (PC and I think MAC) is a few years old now (meaning it is cheap and easy to find used on eBay or half or Amazon etc.)

It includes a VERY good beginners regiment and board-with-text+voice guidance on LOTS AND LOTS of topics. I recommend it if you want a game for PC that will move you past the beginner stage into more intermediate-topics and beyond. It has A LOT of stuff.

Patience. It takes patience and concentration. I once played a very adept chess player to a stalemate. The only time I ever did that but my did I ever have to practice patience even to do that much.

Grab a "Best of... " book and go over the games. You will pick up opening theories, middle game strategies and end games. Unless you're really serious into chess, avoid "How to win with .... opening" books. You will either left hanging as what to do next or the game is won because the opponent made an epic error.

You get good by playing always.

Study helps but nothing beats taking action, playing.

Practice! It's the only thing that ever helped me. I read numerous books, but I found that once I knew the basics, the only way I could learn anymore was to practice, practice, practice.
And I echo the previous post... Don't let it (or anything) become an idol.

God bless!

Find people better than you and play them as often as you can.

Learn by doing, I believe is superior to learn by study.
