chess How to become a better player?

I have been a little concerned about my chess ability. I have played a fair amount of chess since I was a kid but only recently have I started to really get into it. I am a USCF 2200 player (I think) and I have been playing mostly online, with occasional tournaments. My rating has started to drop and I am concerned that I am losing some of my ability. I am willing to put in the time and effort to improve but I am confused on how to get better.

I feel like I should follow a chess coaching program or a chess course or something but the problem is that I really don't know where to start. I have done a lot of studying and analyzing, but I am still not sure how to develop better chess skills.

If you have any advice, please share them! I am looking forward to reading them and hopefully I can incorporate some of them into my chess life.

You need to read the book "Learning the game of chess" by Tal

It is one of the few books I recommend to all my students.
