After 1 year 1 month and 4 days I finally made the leap from Expert to Candidate. It's been a really great trip but this isn't the end. M is the next goal and I'm not planning to take another year to get there.
My advice for any one out there who wants to reach CM is a quote I heard, "Obsession beats talent". So just spend a lot of time practicing and you'll just find your ratings sky rocket.
Congrats _Puzzles! Perseverance pays off!
Thanks
Epic
_Puzzles when?
???
You deserve it ;)
Noted down :- "Obsession beats talent"
Congrats!
and I wish I could say the kind of same thing for me, except I become pupil this round. But as fate would have it, I felt short of $$$13$$$ rating points.
Even I went through a similar thing when I was about to get to pupil. But felt short of 28 points so I know how provoking it could be. But you can get them in Saturdays contest. Good luck.
Good luck to you too!
Congrats _Puzzles your Effort paid off
Hoping to reach and my name will be the same color one day
The line "Obsession beats talent" is just awesome bro...
"Obsession beats talent. Great saying, bro!"
