Chess is a game of strategy, and finding the right moves can be challenging, especially in complex positions. In this lesson, we will uncover the two fundamental rules that help grandmasters make the best decisions in any chess game.

One common struggle in chess is deciding on the best move when there seem to be many possible options. You might have several moves at your disposal, but determining which move will be the best can be perplexing. These two vital principles can simplify your thought process during a chess game and guide you to make the best moves.

The two principles are:

• The principle of attack. You have to ask yourself, “How can I go forward and attack something?” Look to your opponent’s side of the board and see where you can move your piece to create threats.
