@UN it is impossible for you.
Follow your dream and dont listen anyone......
Yeah it's possible I saw one Russian or Ucrainian GM that obtained the title at 45 years of age so it's possible and I think there are couple more same cases in that about 500 GM in world club,so don't give,long way ahead of you this is also my dream same way ahead of me I started at age 18 I had highest chess rating here 1690 on other account,find local chess coach in chess club for start or one from here .I wish you to obtain that title and believe in yourself.
Thank you all for the kind words. For me Chess is more than a game. It is Art. I wish so much now after i felt in love with Chess i could have started learning it in younger ages, but i never came in touch with it. It is amazing for me how high rating people are playing. Its a certain kind of communication with each other through the pieces.
And I love that some are positive here and others are not. The contrast within chess is fullfilled with your reaction towards my impressions of this boardgame( i rather spend here my time, than making an imperiumXD loved that one)
I know as a child the process of learning is diffrent than an adult, and thats why i will probably never gonna play on high a lvl, but i will try and I will return here, when i reach 2000elo

Hello!! Tell me how you got your game. What do you read? How much time studying chess? Very interesting. For the year you have a good rating. If the second year will make Lichess a rating of 2000 will be very good. Then the most difficult. 2300 may take 5 years. This rating is a skilled player with a discharge CM - candidate master. Lichess a rating of 2500 is the master. Good luck in your endeavors!! This is a serious challenge to his hobby!!

I dont read anything. All i do is play! Ty

I don't read chess books except the endgame mastery course by jeremy silman. It is really good. Try and master one of the examples per day or two if you feel ambitious. Then test yourself by setting up the examples in board editor and play stockfish level 8.Tactics puzzles are a must do them every day. At least 10... If you can draw the side that has to make the draw or win the side that can win it will do you a lot not just for your endgame but calculation as well. I watch massive amounts of chess videos. I have played for almost a year now and it has become my favorite hobby. I want to become a CM and quit chess for good after that.

I'm puzzled. Why spend so much time and then quit forever ? is there a hidden agenda ? :-)

@achja
No. I want to get my title and move on. I don't want to be trapped in chess forever where there is no money to be made.
I make a goal. I do it. Then I move on. Simple right? I have a max of 2 years and 1 month for chess (my own limit). I would be super disappointed to not make CM in that amount of time considering the progress I have made so far. Maybe I would play some but not a lot and for sure I would not be able to maintain 2000-2200 for long. Maybe a couple blitz games online a year and that would be it.

That's clear! :)
If I may add my personal view on that, right now :
For making money one does not need a title.
For example, chess coaching is done worldwide, by 2300+ players, but also by 1400+ players. Why ? Because there will always be beginning chess players, who like to be coached (Think about school children who get chess lessons with all of their classmates).
Also, the Steps method, Chess tutor, which is used for training by a lot of chess-clubs in Holland, was developed by IM Cor van Wijgerden, and the non titled player Rob Brunia.
Besides that, otb chess is quite different from online chess.
I have tried to go over 2100 dutch rating in otb chess but I've always failed due to several reasons.
In online chess it is much easier for me to concentrate and play chess. Usually no noise distractions, I can play my favorite music, choose the time when to play etc.
In otb chess I also find the atmosphere of playing chess usually a bit too serious. I prefer to have a nice balance between serious and fun chess.

I like teaching the kids that come to the library. :) But I do it for fun and making money off of chess is still limited. I would not mind working on chess doing something with it to make money but it should not be my whole concentration of energy. Maybe a side business. Time > Money but money = time in some cases. So my energy should be spent where I get the most money per time used. Right now though I want to concentrate on chess and reach my goal. If that happens in the time frame of two years and one month from now (so 3 years total) it will be a success. I need to overcome issues with calculation more than anything to make it a reality but I am taking steps to doing so.
@UN if you are just playing then you will never be GM. ;)
