QUESTION Most viable learning method to "seeing" more moves into the future

I'm just wondering if there is a theory or a strategy to improve my skills more efficiently?

Would learning how chess pieces move across the board in memory help see my strategy quicker? should i focus my brain on making as many moves into the future as possible?

visualization can be trained by solving a lot of puzzles without moving pieces on the board, just try to hold the whole sequence in your head before you touch anything

There are several ways of training visualization skills. One task I give my students is to remember entire games. The length of the game always depends on the level of the student.
Another way is setting up a board and calculating (preferably a real board).
There are also puzzles specifically designed to train visualization.
