If your numbers are on the up and my grade is ‘improving’, as some would say, does that constitute progression or regression? Perhaps the question is a little vague and requires further qualification: what if I become concerned about my actual rating -which admittedly is artificially low- does wanting an impressive rating rank higher than playing contently with no real care over results? Do we start with what lies within us and work outwards or begin with what lies external to us -and depending upon the interpretation of that- work inwards to establish our own thoughts and feelings? Who calls the shots?
