Earlier Game against FoggyDew that I had a draw but lost (Played on FICS 6.15.2020)

1. c4 e6 2. Nc3 d5 3. cxd5 exd5 4. d4 Nf6 5. e3 Bd6 6. Bb5+ c6 7. Bd3 O-O 8.
Nge2 Qc7 9. Ng3 Bg4 10. Qc2 Nbd7 11. a3 Rfe8 12. b4 a5 13. b5 c5 14. Nce2 Qb6
15. a4 c4 16. Bf5 Bxf5 17. Nxf5 Bb4+ 18. Bd2 Bxd2+ 19. Qxd2 Ne4 20. Qc2 Qf6
21. g4 g6 22. f3 gxf5 23. fxe4 fxe4 24. h4 Qf3 25. O-O-O Qxe3+ 26. Kb2 Nb6
27. Nc3 Rac8 28. h5 Qg3 29. g5 e3 30. g6 hxg6 31. hxg6 f6 32. Qf5 e2 33. Rh8+
Kg7 34. Rh7+ Kg8 35. Qxf6 Nxa4+ 36. Nxa4 Qb3+ {cterlizzi resigns} 0-1

(I went for the win with 35 Qxf6 and turned down the draw with 35. Rh8! - I overlooked blacks next move - Nxa4)

So, why is it so much more important to play opponents A LOT better than you?  You'll consider your mistakes more significant.  If they are more significant to you then you will remember them a lot easier.  If you remember your mistakes, you will improve!
