Time management expert

Took a 2-day coaching seminar from one of best trainers Mira, GM Artur Yasupov. (2012)

Greetings, dear chess lover! My name is Maxim Omariev, and besides the dry facts, I would like to tell you a little about how I came to chess, what it gave me and why I decided to found this school of chess.

The beginning of the way

Like many other children, I was first taught to play chess by my father, at about the age of 7 years. Already at this time, I was playing approximately on equal terms with my older brother (who was 17 years old at that time). Fortunately, my parents saw my predisposition to chess and, therefore, they enrolled me in the chess section at a secondary school.

In my first tournament, I completed level 4 with a score of 9.5 out of 10 points, beating regulars of the chess club who were already in 3rd grade. I was very lucky with my first coach, Adolf Ivanovich Kuznetsov, who laid the first foundation of mastery in me.

At the age of 10, I already completed 1 category, from the age of 11 I studied at the Olympic Reserve School No. 3 - “Palace of Pioneers”, and already at the age of 12 I became a master's candidate, but can I be proud of this result?

Although at that time I was a local “star”, my interviews were published in various newspapers, I was invited to TV shows, but in fact I was no longer so “cool”, I lost a lot of time.

(A little later I’ll post a scan of the newspaper with my interview on the cover)

Start studying at the age of 7, but complete 1 level only by the age of 10? Well of course not! I completed the 1st level mainly due to talent, and not due to any correct systematic studies. Considering that they predicted a great future for me in chess, one fact remains obvious - I was not able to fully realize my potential. I studied haphazardly, the trainers did not give a systematic approach, and therefore new results came more and more slowly.

I achieved the title of Master of Sports only at the age of 18, although in theory I should have been around 12 years old. And now, instead of playing at the world level, I am just content with the title of FIDE Master.

And unfortunately, this situation is repeated with many talented children, and I wanted to change this situation...

In search of a system - training at RGUFKSMIT

Afterwards, I began to look for a training system that would help accelerate further growth for both me and other students. Of course, the best educational institution in the world for chess players and future chess coaches is the best sports university in Europe - RGUFKSMIT.

At the age of 16, I was in my first year at university, with the title of Candidate of Masters of Masters, and after 3 years I practically completed the title of international master, because... began to act according to the correct training systems. But then I switched all my strength and all my attention to creating a chess school for other people, so that they too could get the results they needed.

Coaching is very different from being an athlete, and therefore I simply could not continue to devote time to further growth in chess. If at the 1st level it is enough to study for 1-2 hours a day, then at the master level it is at least 4 hours of daily work + playing in tournaments, and therefore I postponed my further growth in chess. And strictly speaking, I’m unlikely to become a world champion, so I don’t have much motivation to achieve the title of “grandmaster”.

Why am I not a grandmaster?

According to the correct system, I would be able to achieve the title of grandmaster in 3 years, especially since I have already beaten the strongest grandmasters in the world many times, but why did I postpone achieving this title?

It’s just that chess has already given me such benefits that one can only dream of: developed intellect, good memory, creative thinking and all this helps me in my current projects.

The main motto of the ChessMaster chess school is - Achieve success in chess and in life!

And I follow this motto! I have already achieved quite significant heights in chess, and now I am focused on passing on this knowledge and developing in other areas of my life, and chess has provided me with untold benefits in this path.

• By the age of 22, I completed two higher educations (RSUFKSMIT and RSUH)
• Speaker at more than 20 conferences
• Founded several business projects
• And created the best online chess school in the CIS
• And now I’m still learning to play the guitar)

This is why I believe that absolutely anyone should take up chess, because... They help a lot in life!

Now I am completely focused on the development of the ChessMaster chess school, because... I have a dream - to revive the greatness of Russian chess! And I will contribute to the future generation of champions, both Russia and the world!

I myself take on students only in exceptional cases, because... Now I just don’t have time for individual work. But I took care of this by inviting the best coaches from all over the world, with teaching talent and a high level of skill (from CCM to Grandmaster), to the ChessMaster chess school.

I hope you enjoy the pages of our school, studying our materials, our free and paid programs and completing new levels at phenomenal speed! Current results and student feedback confirm the effectiveness of my method, and for me this is the most important thing.

The quality of a coach is best demonstrated by the results of his students.

Here are some of my students:

• Sofia Surkova - 10 years old, CMS. Champion of the Northwestern Federal District under 12 years old, participant in the Russian and European championships.
• Artyom Preminin - 12 years old, CMS. Champion of Arkhangelsk under 10 years old, participant of the Russian Championship.
• Efim Kann - 9 years old, 1st category. Bulgarian champion in rapid chess under 8 years old
• Vika Zueva - 10 years old, 1st category. Bronze medalist of the Arkhangelsk Championship
• Olya Ivanova - 7 years old, 1st category. There is no need to say that she is the best at her age)

Previously, I trained with absolute beginners, but after the publication of the “” course, I no longer train. It’s just not very interesting to talk about how figures move 100 times)

Here is the result of the last student with whom I studied practically from scratch:

Sasha Agafonov - won the tournament, received the cup 3 months later, and before that he didn’t really know the rules.

Now I practically don’t take students for individual lessons, because... focused on the massive transformation of the chess level in our country and the entire Russian-speaking world. Individual lessons other coaches from our school are engaged, whom I personally selected to ensure that our students get maximum results!

Apply for a trial lesson right now!

ChessMaster - Let's make you Champions!

Maxim Omariev has been playing chess since he was 7 years old. Already while studying at the university, he had several businesses and for a long time could not understand which of his hobbies (business, chess and music) was the most interesting and important.

Maxim Omariev: my mission is to help as many people as possible organize their activities so that they can live the way they really want.

We can say that chess won, but not only that. He combined his love of the game with business and, through coaching seminars, helps beginners learn chess from scratch. Therefore, the main motto of his ChessMaster school is to achieve success in chess and in life!

All courses have high-quality feedback from teachers. The acquired skills and knowledge are regularly tested. If you want to learn the game yourself or develop your mathematical and logical thinking your child, which will definitely be needed in adult life, then welcome to Maxim Omariev’s courses.

Greetings, dear friend. My name is Maxim Omariev, and on this page I would like to tell you a little about myself and what I do.

My history

There are three most vibrant passions in my life: Business, chess and music.

And I have always been puzzled by the question: How to manage to combine these three passions of mine, and at the same time enjoy life, hang out with friends, engage in personal life, sports, study at the university...?

I felt this problem most acutely when I decided to study at two universities at the same time. How did I solve this problem?

I just started to slowly “forget” about chess, forget about my passion for music, there was no talk about my personal life at all. I was sliding into the abyss of everyday life...

And then a story happened that radically made me rethink my life. It's a long story, and maybe I'll write an article about it soon. The result of this story was that I got to one very powerful off-site training festival (I got there simply by miracle), and there was that environment - which made me literally within two days - completely change my life.

I began to fanatically research various techniques and techniques for time management and time organization, so I was able not only to study calmly at two universities, but moreover, to manage to build different kinds business, both online and offline, as well as lead a vibrant life, travel, spend a lot of time with friends and family.

I decided to create this blog for three reasons:

This is my tool for achieving goals. I write openly about my plans, and publish daily reports on achieving my goals, which is called without cuts.

I'm posting my thoughts. I share all my thoughts, thus unloading my head for new interesting ideas.

Help other people improve their lives. I don’t take money for this, I only write articles for my own pleasure, thus organizing useful techniques and tricks that I use myself.

Why don't I teach time management and improving your life for money? I believe that only those who have excellent results in their life can teach. Until I reach 350,000 net rubles per month, I will not start giving any paid consultations or seminars on any topic related to achieving success.

I have real results in info-marketing and chess, so I calmly organize business processes in these topics.

I was not yet 20 when I graduated from the first university, and crossed the equator in the second. I was already the owner of several businesses, and managed to make headway in a bunch of failed projects. I've managed to travel through half of the countries in Europe, and of course I don't intend to stop there.

Who is this blog for?

I am an expert in time management and information marketing, but on this blog I will only write on topics related to personal growth and time management. I will write articles about info-marketing on the website of the training center “Info-Proryv”

Of course, there will also be techniques for personal effectiveness, as well as sections that are very important in my opinion: financial literacy, good books. I will give my reviews of the best and most delicious books.

I can manage a large number of projects, and I haven’t talked about all of them on this page.

In addition, I am the owner of a blog on the topic of making money on the Internet MaxNeo.ru, with more than 1,500 visitors per day. There are also quite good articles on personal effectiveness, but from now on, everything related to this topic will be published on the blog site

I managed to gain a subscription base of more than 5,000 people in less than a week, but I will talk about this at one of the next trainings at the Info-Breakthrough shopping center.

My mission

I see my mission as helping as many people as possible organize their activities so that they can live the way they really want!

Here I express my opinions and thoughts on topics related to time management and achieving success, and at the Info-Breakthrough Training Center, we teach how to earn good money while sitting at home in a dressing gown.

Not long ago I wrote a book on time management, but I haven’t published it yet. As soon as this happens, you will immediately know about it.
