I wish I was at that level. At my level it is more like:
1) Avoid blundering
2) Correctly identify an opponents mistake before making my own
3) Correctly exploit opponents mistake
4) Avoid blundering an advantage.
Not exactly GM advice, but some days I struggle to get past step 1

I wish I could do the ff:
1)Control the center
2)Place the knight or bishop in the ideal position
3)Control open columns
4)Place your rook(s) on the 7th rank
6)Castle early
7)Control the diagonals
8)Avoid isolated pawns

I use a "simple method"
1) Control the game.
2) Attack all the time!
3) Break all the opponent defense.
4) Never give a chance to the opponent control the game.
Sometimes the opponent invert the game and the problem starts. :)

GM Alex Yermolinsky called 2300-rated masters “tomato cans” who have a limited understanding of chess, so what can the rest of us rating challenged folks do except just blunder on?
Most of the time my choice is determined by the following 2-step procedure:
1.What’s the first move that pops into my head?
2.Does it lose a piece?
A.Not that I can see…play it.
B.Yes…go back to Step 1

You are missing a lot. Chess is not just pawns even though they are half the pieces.
