Do You Know How To Analyse? Part 3

Trying to do this in the odd fifteen minutes here and there during breaks at work is probably not the best idea. I have half a page of 'analysis', most of which is scribbled out and the remainder of which isn't up to much.

Of necessity doing it this way requires backtracking over previous work, when the discipline we're trying to establish is to move in a straight line from static analysis to candidate moves to analysis of variations to the move to be played.

I'll need to pick some simpler positions (1 or 2 candidates with fairly straight variations) and set aside an hour or two at a time on the weekend when I can concentrate on the task, then practice on more complex positions when I have the basic technique (discipline and calculation). Meantime rehearsing tactics seems to be a more useful thing to do in odd little moments here and there.
