I'm not a titled player, but I honestly believe I had what it took to become at the very least FM. I ended up quitting chess at my peak of around 2200 since I lost interest.
Back when i was playing chess I would watch every video I could on roman dzindzi because he would explain his thought process very well and I think I highly benefited from those. I jumped from like 1100 uscf to 1800 uscf <I was stuck at 1000 uscf for 2 years prior> in less than 2 year and I honestly believe the videos helped tremendously. I adapted a lot of the play styles/heuristics and just played a bunch.
I wish youtube existed back when I was playing chess.
There's so many instructive videos where players that play similar styles as me and are a little to moderately stronger than me would explain their thought process in games.
This is an example which I think is a very good series by John Bartholomew:
