The most common problem amongst the intermediate/club players is that they don’t know what to do in a middlegame, especially when there are no attacking moves or direct threats.
When the material is equal and everything seems to be quiet, when there is no straightforward way for you to attack and checkmate the opponent's king, and when there are no tactical shots present in the position - what would you do? This situation puzzles a lot of chess players.
When there is no direct attack on your opponent’s king, it comes down to POSITIONAL PLAY. This means that it is about the position of your pieces. Therefore, you need to think of ways to improve your pieces and make them active.
That is exactly what GM Igor Smirnov has explained in the following video lesson. In this video, we’re going to demystify the chess strategy and break it down into simple actionable tips, so that you can implement them easily in YOUR own games.

7:49 just wondering, if white plays king to h3 and Kg3 in repetition instead of moving his rook away from his queen, would it end in a draw? I can’t see any other way that black can attack without exchanging his queen and try to go to end game

[@LijoMLoyid]

If King goes to h3, then black can deflect the white Queen by playing Rook to c2. After Queen captures rook on c2, white will capture the rook on f3 with check and forced mate will follow. If White Queen doesn't take the rook on c2, and move to a safe square, say g3, white can attack it with h4, again deflecting the queen. If Qxh4, mate will follow (Qxh2#). White's king position is hapless and the attack is unstoppable and he will get mated one way or the other
