Chess Training Tips-Play to your strengths
To thine own self be true
If you are a tactical player, you should play lines that have a lot of tactics. If you are a positional player, then choose your lines accordingly. If you are a good endgame player, accent those lines where the Queen's, (and lots of other pieces), are exchanged early
This does not mean that you will not and should not study opposites. In other words, the better you get, the more you will have to study. If you are a positional player, you should be continually sharpening your tactics, and if you are solely a tactical player, then you should be constantly trying to improve your positional play.
But in tournaments, when it really counts ... play to your strengths ... not your weaknesses
