Playing dangerously

In addition to continuing to study tactics, critical part of becoming a master is to develop a chess style. Chess style refers to the style of playing.
Once you have developed a chess style, try to focus all your attention on
1) Forcing the game into positions which suit your style and
2) Further developing your style in that style.
If you have followed the chess vision and seven circle drill and have made them your basis chess style, you will prefer:
• Open position to close position
• Unorthodox positions to well-studied one
• Complicate middle game
• Simple opening to theoretical openings
• Pieces endgame to pawn endgames
This style of play has immediate implications for various aspects of your play.
