You will need to join the organization that grants Grandmaster status, the Federation Internationale des Echecs (FIDE), also known as the World Chess Federation. There is no minimum experience requirement to become a member and you can join through their website. An FIDE membership costs 25 (roughly $27) per year. There is also a premium membership available for 50. You'll need to attend FIDE registered tournaments to develop your rating. One of the requirements for a Grandmaster ranking is to get 3 high-level finishes at these tournaments, known as "norms." Find an official list of qualifying tournaments. These tournaments often include fees that range from $40-200. A finishing rank needed to achieve a norm is defined by the size and quality of the tournament which is arbitrated by the FIDE. For example, a relatively large tournament might only require a quarterfinal placement to achieve a norm while a relatively small tournament might require you to win first place. Your FIDE rating develops as you compete in registered tournaments. Your rating is calculated based on your record, the rating of your opponents, and the quality of the tournament. You can track your rating by searching your membership ID or name on the FIDE website.

and promotional fliers. Distribute these items around local art galleries and fairs. Ask local vendors if you can leave some of your business cards with them or post a flier on their community bulletin boards. Consider contacting vendors that would have the appropriate clientele for your artwork. Also advertise at local restaurants and stores. This will will allow you to catch people of all interests. Those that are closest to you are your biggest advocates. Let your friends, family and co-workers know that you are selling your art. Show them some of your favorite pieces so they can pass on first-hand information about your art for sale. Be sure to also give them some of your promotional materials so they can hand out your contact information. Most communities host a variety of art fairs throughout the year. Research the various options and decide which one, or ones, would be most appropriate for the type of art you are selling. For example, if you intend on selling paintings, go to one which highlights paintings in particular. Keep in mind that it often costs money to have a booth at these fairs, but consider the fee an investment in your business. Putting up a little money will likely pay off once you sell a few of your pieces. If you know some people who may be intrigued by your work, host a small get together at your house or at one of their houses. You can also host a private showing to only a handful of guests. Some people are more likely to attend an intimate event like this than an art fair. Ask all of those invited to bring a guest and, again, you are broadening your client base just by word of mouth.

Think about your past interactions with the hater. There might be absolutely nothing you can do but you might discover their hate is rooted in a single conversation, action, or event that could easily be rectified. This does not mean that you have to make an effort to resolve the problem; rather, it will allow you to identify the source of hate and provide you with the knowledge of how better to live your life around the hater if you choose. People are often quick to judgment and perhaps there was a bad first impression left by you. If so, try to re-approach them and let the hater get to know you a little better. Their attitude might change. The same can be said about shyness. Some people mistake shyness as rudeness. Make an effort to at least say hello or good morning. This will at least prove you are not ignoring them. You might illustrate your success in way that another person might perceive as boastful. Or, they might be jealous of your achievement because they lack the traits necessary to attain the same success. In this case, you might want to tone down your triumphs for the sake of peace. Joking or horsing around could also lead to issues with haters. Some people don't like to see others enjoying life when they are miserable or they might not be part of the "in" crowd and resent it. Either try to include everybody in the fun or simply cut it out when the hater is present. The issue the hater has with you is their problem and not yours. The quicker you realize this the quicker you can come to peace with the situation. Indeed, most haters have no real basis for their animosity The most direct way of dealing with the problem is to ask them what their problem with you is if they have not already made it clear. If it is their own personal problem, tell them to seek help and leave you out of it. It is important to remember that hurt people hurt people. Have you ever met a happy, well-adjusted person hurt you or somebody else? Of course not because they don't waste their time being negative and hurtful. Don't take on a hater's vicious criticism. Since they spend so much time trying to destroy your image they spend less time being creative and constructive. Avoid their problems so that you can move forward with your life. As a person, no matter if you ignore the hater or not, you will still probably wonder why they are giving you such a hard time. In order to come to some type of conclusion, think about the situation from a different perspective. Look at it from a third person's point of view and find the source of the problem. Seeing the situation from a new angle will help you rationalize their hate on a deeper level. No matter how much you try to avoid it, there could have actually been something you did to make a hater dislike you. As hard as that can be to accept, try to put yourself in their shoes and consider what issues they might be dealing with.
