In chess endgames, focus on these key principles:

1. King Activity: Centralize your king to support your other pieces.

2. Piece Coordination: Coordinate your remaining pieces for maximum effectiveness.

3. Pawn Promotion: Advance your pawns to promote them to queens or other powerful pieces.

4. King Safety: Keep your king safe, avoiding unnecessary risks.

5. Opposition: Gain the opposition to limit your opponent’s king’s movement.

6. Zugzwang: Force your opponent into a position where any move they make weakens their position.

7. Simplify: Trade pieces when ahead, but avoid it when behind to complicate the game.

8. Calculation: Calculate accurately, as mistakes in endgames are often decisive.

9. Study Endgames: Learn common endgame patterns and techniques, such as King and Pawn vs. King.

10. Practice: Improve your endgame skills through practice and analysis of your games.
