Playing Chess In The Mind

Having trouble to sleep yesterday night and constantly needing to go to the toilet (as I was having a terible diarrhea) made me wonder, what extend of capacity that I was able to take my mind to.

Earlier the day before, I was having a conversation with a work colleague that it has been ages since we played the Chess, and both started comparing how well we used to be at chess during our school times. That night as I was about to doze off, I decided to go to my level (I will explain this in future post). At this level, I believe that I, and probably many others can Imagine an event and making it seem so real. I wouldn’t say it’s fantasy land, but somewhere in between fantasy and reality.

The intention of this mind exercise, was Cheap Brand Cialis to play chess without having the physical board. It took me about 30 minutes to create a clear picture of the board in my mind, the board alone took so long as my concentration was bringing me back to reality. Somehow I managed to hold on the the image of the board. Then slowly placing the piece on the board, black pieces first, then the white ones. Once that was complete, I was able to rotate the board with the pieces on it 3-dimensionally. Imagine turning the board upside down, while the pieces are still intact. Takes alot of concentration and believe.

Finally I started playing chess with myself. I have this habit of splitting myself into 2, the so called bad side and good side. First I had to try the famous “4 Step”, it was hard trying to remember in mind where the pieces were moved to. Many times I had to track back to retrace the moves. But as I was doing it more, the easier it became.

Sadly, I was not able to stay awake until the game was over. Getting up in the morning, still wondering how I managed to play chess in my mind. Is it possible to play chess like this with another person who is connected in the zone? Wonders of the Mind.
