Why I Love To Play Chess?

    
                                                   




        Chess is a game for people of all ages. You can learn to play at any age and in chess, unlike in many other sports, you don't ever have to retire. Age is also not a factor when you're looking for an opponent-young can play old and old can play young. Chess develops memory. Chess improves concentration. During the game you are focused on only one main goal-to checkmate and become the victor

       Besides that, Chess promotes imagination and creativity. It encourages you to be inventive. There are an indefinite amount of beautiful combinations yet to be constructed. Chess develops the scientific way of thinking. While playing, you generate numerous variations in your mind. You explore new ideas, try to predict their outcomes and interpret surprising revelations. You decide on a hypothesis, and then you make your move and test it.

      Furthermore, Chess is cheap and fun. You don't need big fancy equipment to play chess. In fact, all you may need is your computer. For me, it is also good to have a chess set at home to practice with family members, to take to a friend's house or even to your local neighborhood park to get everyone interested in the game. For me chess is everything.
