Dreaming about chess means planning and taking action on attaining your goals. Spend time deliberating what your next moves should be instead of relying on intuition or gut feelings. Each move is a reflection of all your experiences whether you win or lose. Once the plan is set, then take action while being aware of any reactions from those involved.
Inch by inch, you will be closer to attaining your goals in advancing a career or strengthening a relationship. Stay focused, the reward is greater than eliminating the opponents chess pieces.
