Chess Helps Enhance Scholastic Skills Chess teaches you to have a goal and overcome the obstacles on your way there. Cognitive Flexibility and Control Ability to change what you are thinking about, how you think about it, and even what you think about it. In other words, the ability to change your mind. It is all about context. Students can handle transactions easily and will continue to build their own abilities to stay on task and organized. Heedful Paying careful attention to every action in your life. Being mindful helps you think first and then act. It leads to great good. It helps to make long-lasting friends and also to enjoy the moment. Endurance Life is an endurance sport – physically, mentally, and financially. Nothing else is as powerful in getting you to where you want to be. If you can’t go long, you won’t go far. You’re going to have to endure hardship to get from where you are right now to where you want to be.
