Subject: Initiative in chess

A question for chess experts.
How important is to be the side to play? (in centi pawns if possible)
I think it is very important in queen pawn endings (where the queen can
continously give check), but less important in others. In Zugzwang postions like
pawn endgames, it might be a mistake all in all.
thanks
