When I sit down at the chess board, I like to imagine the board as cone
connecting to my eyes. Nothing else exists, my concentration is on the chess pieces, the board, occasionally my opponent. Everything else fades away, sounds, thoughts, dreams. Only by focusing on the task at hand, the moment, the decision around which piece to move next, do we have any hope of playing the best move consistently.
The beauty of the moment is enough, focus on it, and your play will improve.
