The Slump: Can It Be Avoided?

As you can see in as much as I try to duck the chess slump it just sucks me into the depths of this seemingly bottomless pit and it is the opposite of being in the zone or I can do all the wrong not so much in blunders but in concentration. I love being in the zone but that will have to wait until whenever. There is no magic formula for arriving there to the zone but when I get there that is if I get there I probably will not be quiet about it. I will get there I always do and when I don't then I will go away from playing the games like I did tennis. The fond memories in tennis will never go away as well as the bitter ones too.
