Really? That was fast. Usually slumps happen when you're striking out or hitting weak ground balls. I've been hitting a lot of them on the button.
Slumps are like a soft bed. They're easy to get into and hard to get out of.
What helped me most were my failures and slumps - when I couldn't get work, people weren't interested in me or had written me off.
Economic theory has demonstrated in an irrefutable way that a prosperity created by an expansionist monetary and credit policy is illusory and must end in a slump, an economic crisis.
Credit expansion can bring about a temporary boom. But such a fictitious prosperity must end in a general depression of trade, a slump.
The boom is called good business, prosperity, and upswing. Its unavoidable aftermath, the readjustment of conditions to the real data of the market, is called crisis, slump, bad business, depression.
Slumps don't bother me.
To cure a batting slump, I took my bat to bed with me. I wanted to know my bat a little better.
Finality is death. Perfection is finality. Nothing is perfect. There are lumps in it.
Obviously you'd like to have everybody throwing up zeroes all the time. But that can't happen. Pitchers can go into slumps just like hitters. For whatever reason, sometimes they do it collectively.
