Summer Slump?? · The Social Growth Skool

Summer Slump??

I am gonna tell you something straight from the heart: we’ve all been there. Every single successful person you admire has sat right where you’re sitting—stuck, frustrated, questioning if they’ve got what it takes. I’ve been there. It’s part of the journey.

But—and this is important—that slump? It’s temporary. It only becomes permanent if you settle in and unpack your bags there. You are not stuck—you are paused. There’s a big difference.

Let’s get real practical, because the only way out of a slump is movement, even if it’s tiny steps.

How to Break Out of the Slump — Angel Fletcher Style:

1. Change Your Scenery

When you’re in a slump, your environment starts reinforcing that stuck feeling. You’ve got to interrupt the pattern.

Action Step:

Go for a walk.
Work from a different space for an hour.
Drive through a nice neighborhood and dream a little—see what’s possible for your life.

I do this all the time—when I feel stuck, I walk through model homes or nice car lots to get my mind out of lack and into vision. You’ve got to see bigger before you become bigger .

2. Shrink the Battle

Slumps feel heavy because we stare at the whole mountain. You don’t climb Everest in a day—you take one step, then another.

Action Step:

Ask yourself: “What’s the smallest, most manageable thing I can do right now?”

Draft a social post (even if you don’t hit publish).
Write down 3 names of people to reach out to.
Spend 10 minutes refining your product idea.

The key is movement, not magnitude. Small wins break the slump.

3. Reconnect with Your “Why”

When you’re stuck, it’s easy to forget why you started. But your vision is still there—it just needs some oxygen.

Action Step:

Write this down somewhere visible:

“Why did I choose this path?”
“Who needs what I have?”
“What does my life look like when I’m fully in motion?”

When you re-anchor to your why, the slump loses its grip .

4. Interrupt the Negative Loop

Your brain loves to loop on negative thoughts when you’re stuck. But guess what? You’re in control of the loop.

Action Step:

The moment you catch a negative thought, say “Stop. Not today.”

Replace it with: “I’m building momentum. I’m moving forward.”

It feels weird at first, but it works. Your words direct your mind, and your mind directs your results.

5. Take Imperfect Action

Perfection is the cousin of procrastination. Waiting until you feel ready keeps you stuck.

Truth Bomb:

The slump lifts when you act, not when you feel ready. Confidence is built by doing, not by thinking.

6. Borrow Belief

If you’re struggling to believe in yourself right now, borrow my belief in you. Borrow the belief of everyone who’s walked this road and come out the other side. You wouldn’t be here, reading this, battling this slump, if greatness wasn’t in you.

You’ve got it. You just have to take the next step.

Final Thought...

Slumps feel permanent in the moment, but they’re temporary if you refuse to settle there. You are so much closer than you think you are. One action, one mindset shift, one small win—and the dominoes start falling.
