Schedules are important to any person. I am the living proof of that. To be organized, first you must list all the events that you are required to come. Next is to list down the events that you want to come and is not necessarily you would come. This post of yours is a great idea so maybe you could help me in some way. Thank you for sharing this. The Princeton Chess Academy is one of the pioneer academy in the country for Chess.
