Take a look at this typical bishop sacrifice on 17. Bf7! Kf7 18. Ng5 Kf6 19. Qf4# And black'sking gets quickly checkmated. 1-0
In order to be proficient at finding tactics such as forks, smothered mates, checkmates, pins, and skewers you need to solveproblems on daily bases. If you are aiming for a serious progress, consistency is the key. Sure you may skip a day or two hereand there, but the point is to work on tactics at least for 20 minutes a day everyday.
Once you're doing that, you should throw positional training, endgames training, and attacking training into the equation and thesuccess is almost guaranteed for you. Things can be a little confusing though, but don't worry we tried to make learning chessas easy as possible, by creating a step-by-step, day-by-day training program that will help to take your chess to the next level.
