The Salsa Dance of Progress.
Research: On good days it's two steps forward, one step back.
Sometimes for a whole year (or a few), it's one step forward, two steps back.
Kind of hard sometimes to see the wisdom of dancing, if that's the dance.
Or as a friend of mine puts it,
some days you're the dog.
some days you're the hydrant.

I just hope I'm cha-chaing to a degree! ;)
I personally like to think that academic life has a bit of a swing! Although the standard advice of the waltz works to...."quick, quick, slow"
what's the academic equivalent of moonwalking?
Stay with it long enough and on the worst days you at least be a dog...
