- Before you move, check to make sure that you have protected most or all of your pieces.
- In the opening, try to:
- Control the center of the board
- Develop pieces (especially knights and bishops) by moving them off the back rank
- Castle early.
- Generally, making a lot of queen moves in the opening is a bad idea.
- Keep your king safe behind other pieces (often pawns).
