Guest Profile
James Fannin
Jim Fannin is America’s ZoneCoach®, coaching more champions in sports, business and life than anyone on earth for over 47 years. As one of the world’s foremost thought leaders, he is more than a life, business or sports coach. He is a "change your life" coach. With the ONLY proven blueprint for attracting the Zone mindset, Jim has helped transform millions of people's lives by providing proven tools and techniques to create simplicity, balance and abundance.
In 1974 Jim Fannin discovered five markers for “thinking like a champion” and attracting the peak performance mindset called the Zone in all aspects of life, business and sports. They are Self-discipline, Concentration, Optimism, Relaxation and Enjoyment. Collectively they form the acronym S.C.O.R.E.®, which is the cornerstone of Jim’s teaching that unlocks one’s full potential.
With proprietary research on intuition, visualization and self-awareness, Jim customized his S.C.O.R.E.® Success System with its powerful 90-Second Rule™ tools and techniques for the world’s elite athletes, top executives, business owners, couples, parents, and students.
Currently, Mr. Fannin has licensed his S.C.O.R.E.® Success System to Recovery Zone Solutions, LLC, an alcohol and opioid addiction treatment program that has disrupted their failed industry by achieving an 80% long-term recovery rate, as opposed to the industry’s paltry 7-14% success rate.
Mr. Fannin is a best-selling author, entrepreneur, premier platform speaker, life strategist, former professional tennis player and coach, educator, business consultant, TV and podcast host, columnist, blogger, peak performance coach and philanthropist.
