Life is short. So my advice to young people is to find your passion, pursue it and give your 110%. There is no take back in life, just as in chess. You don’t want to reflect back years from now and ask yourself “what if”? The sky is your limit, and you have the power to reach it!

The first game "The Great and Terrible Harry" lost to Boris in the USSR Championship in 1981. The next year, another game in the USSR Cup. Then in Linares ... It was not possible to recover completely. Boris Gulko is the champion of the USSR and the USA!
