Idea: Detecting your weaknesses and using spaced
repetition to improve on those areas specifically.

Method:
1. Detect and note every pattern recognition mistake
you make; while solving problems, playing, or analyzing.

1.1. Categorize each mistake.
1.2. Use the categories to make a statistical analysis
of patterns you need to work on the most.

2. Take time to describe it and file it properly. You can even
draw the position by hand, that will make it more memorable.

3. Write down why you think you didn’t see the correct
pattern, plan, or idea.

4. Use spaced repetition by going over the mistake in
carefully planned intervals.
