  • Jim Fannin Show: Manage Your See-Ables

    In this week’s Jim Fannin Show, we get your personal and business life organized.  Self-discipline is the show theme.  Ready?

    What is your 2019 vision and its corresponding goals?  We have less than six months to make it happen. Even if you choose a vision and goals that are realistic with stringent timelines, negative “See-Ables” will decrease your odds of achievement.  What is a See-Able? See-ables are reflections of your overall self-discipline. You will learn the list of See-Ables that when you clean them up, your overall champion mindset will operate with more simplicity, efficiency, clarity and balance.

    Now let’s enter the Fannin Files:

    • Dylan Meyer, former All-American, University of Illinois Men’s Golf team alum and my client qualified this week for the PGA Tour’s  John Deere Classic in downstate Illinois. Dylan shot a Zone-like (-7) this past Monday to qualify.  He joins Scott Langley, another Illini alum.  Be in the Zone men!
    • Congrats to Varun Chopra and Brendan O’Reilly of the University of Illinois Men’s Golf team! The Big Ten Conference announced its Big Ten Distinguished Scholar Award winners this week. The list recognizes student-athletes with a minimum grade-point average (GPA) of 3.7 or higher for the 2018-19 academic year that were also named Academic All-Big Ten.
    • Wimbledon: I see Rafael Nadal facing Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams vs. Simona Halep in the Finals.  Am I still rooting for my sentimental favorite, Roger Federer? Yes!  Am I rooting for Serena?  Yes!  Winners:  Djokovic/Halep
    • MLB All-Star Game: The American League still dominates this series with a 4-3 victory in Cleveland’s Progressive Field. This brought back memories of coaching nine players on the 1997 Cleveland Indians as they marched to the World Series.
    • Braidy Industries $60,000 Women’s Tennis Classic:  This event is played July 20-28 in my hometown of Ashland, Kentucky;  Jim Fannin Youth Recreation Day (7/20) from 12 noon-3pm; 5-years old to high school.  This day is also presented by the Ashland YMCA. Thank you YMCA! You helped me get my start.
    • Zoniac update: 21-month old Grandson Bowen….He loves trucks, soccer, skateboarding, gardening, lawn mowers and books.  Said his first sentence…Good morning! Mom hugs…milk please!  Learn how Bowen is in the Zone every day!
    • Of course, the one thing that will definitely brighten up your day is to be in the Zone.

      This requires the five markers of Self-discipline, Concentration, Optimism, Relaxation and Enjoyment to be balanced and stable….Welcome to the Zone Café!

      When you see your life in order, you will feel the simplicity and balance.  Now you can tackle the macro items in your life without the distraction of the seemingly insignificant items called See-ables. See-ables are reflections of your overall Self-Discipline.

      Order.  Control. Simplicity.  Balance.  These are the words, thoughts and feelings of the CHAMPION. That’s why it is important to keep your room clean.  Mom was right!

      The Zone is a purposeful calm feeling that nothing can go wrong.  Until next week….

    • Jim Fannin Show: Are You Exercising Your Independence?

      Happy 4th of July everybody!  In this episode of the Jim Fannin Show, I discuss independence and the pursuit of happiness within your daily life, business or sport.

      What is happiness? Learn what it is and how you can achieve it every day.

      See who was happy and in the Zone last week.

      • University of Illinois alum Steve Stricker wins the US Senior Open Champion
      • Client Zack Collins called up to major leagues hitting his first HR ever
      • S. Women’s National Soccer Team reaches World Cup Finals
      • Coco Gauff officially arrives on the world stage in major Wimbledon upset.
      • Julia “Hurricane” Hawkins sets world record as 103-year old sprinter.
      • Small group of Guatemalan villagers
      • New Rules! Since 1900, average life expectancy around the globe has more than doubled. Check out my 125th birthday party to celebrate longevity.  Yes…you are invited.  It’s November 4th, 2064. Please RSVP.

        As usual we drive up to the Zone Café and place our order for the missing link needed for peak performance. What are you missing?

        What is Independence? It is the single most prized possession of ALL mankind. It can lead you through hardship and anguish. It provides freedom of choice and with our personal “free will” the choices are many. In America we have freedom from the control, influence, support, or aid of others.

        Listen to your options of choice.

        Independence.  It’s the American Way.

        • Are you exercising your independence? I take a deep dive into your personal finances, parenting, relationships, wellness, business, and friends.
        • Hear their stories. The lure of opportunity and a need to succeed brought these drivers to my doorstep. They chose Uber, taxi, limo or Lyft because of the flexible hours, pay, and freedom it provided to pursue their educational or entrepreneurial ambitions.
        • Listen up America!  Exercise your individual INDEPENDENCE.  Do NOT sit on the sidelines and be complacent.  Do NOT complain about your plight.  Do NOT act like a victim of the system.  Do NOT judge others. Do NOT see your future without a well-planned blueprint. Do NOT hesitate to dream big.

          Turn your dreams into reality.  You still have INDEPENDENCE.  Wield it in a positive way and set your sights on a bright future.  Good fortune favors the bold!

          Have your greatest 3rd quarter ever.   Happy 4th of July!

          Be in the Zone!

          • Jim Fannin Show: How Did Mom Always Know?

            In this week’s Jim Fannin Show, it’s all about intuition. Intuition is a psychological tool that we all have access to use.  However, many of us never wield  its power and often dismiss its warnings and unsolicited advice.  This is unfortunate. Intuition possesses real-time information that your conscious mind does not possess.

            In this episode, I recollect my Mother’s uncanny intuition and how she acted on it to raise an only child…me.

            “How did you know, Mom?” I asked.  “A little bird told me,” was her standard reply.

            At age 13 I had a crush on the daughter of one of the richest families in town. My new love connection began showering me with small gifts. How cool was that? I was smitten with her and enthralled with the wealth she represented. You could fit six of our little house into her family’s mansion. What did I know? Nothing. I was mentally glazed over like a donut. Listen to what my mother made me do.  How did she know?

            “A little bird told me.”

            A few months later my best friend and I concocted a story that we would be having a sleepover at each other’s house. It was the oldest trick in the book. I told my parents I was going to his house for the night and he told his parents he was going to mine. We planned to roam the city with mischievous minds and sleep under the stars with no parental watch. Learn what happened and see how my Mom dealt with my mischievous ways.

            Now off to college… It was my off-season on a tennis scholarship in late October, and partying was governing most of my thoughts and actions. My grades had plummeted as my self-absorbed ego was on the prowl with unbridled zeal. Yes. I was a rock star…at least in my mind. I had settled into a bar stool at the local college hangout, Sammy’s. Nursing my 5th beer I suddenly felt the air sucked out of the room. Listen to what happened next….you won’t believe it!

            It was a year later and I made a surprise visit to see my former high school sweetheart who was enrolled in the University of Kentucky, located hundreds of miles away. Although we went to different schools, we still communicated by letter and phone as if we were the couple most likely to succeed. I had made the trip in six hours and couldn’t wait to see her shocked face when I arrived.  What happened next was a severe blow to my ego…How did Mom always know?

            “A little bird told me.”

            What is the missing link in attracting the Zone while tapping into your sixth sense? As I walk you through the Zone Café, you’ll discover what you need to be a peak performer.

            • If you’re a parent, listen to your gut regarding your children. Act on it.
              • If you’re a businessperson, listen to your inner voice. If can look around corners and see the future.  Trust your  Be decisive.
                • If you’re a golfer and the intuitive whisper says, “6-iron” and you’re holding a 7-iron ready to hit your approach shot, you know what to do. Hit your 6-iron!
                  • And if you’re a teenager, know that Mom is never far away. If you are being mischievous and you notice a small bird in a tree, be careful what you say and do.  It could fly your secrets straight to Mom.  She is all knowing…but you know that already!
                  • Have an awesome Zone week!

                    Be in the Zone!

                    If you have questions, comments, or something you want us to cover during our “Ask Jim” segment, you can email Jim directly and we’ll cover it on next week’s show!

                  • Jim Fannin Show: Happy Fathers Day!

                    I’m baaaack!  It great to be back on air with new podcasts and Zone tools and techniques for being your genuine, authentic best self.  This week’s Jim Fannin Show is all about Dads!

                    What life lessons did your Father (Father’s Day is June 16th) provide that made a difference in your development as an adult?   My Father laid stepping-stones in front of me that I’m just starting to realize.

                    Here’s a few examples from this week’s podcast:

                    Risk & Reward: My Dad used this phrase on me from grade school to adulthood.  What’s the risk for you?  What’s the reward?  Is the risk worth the reward?  This dynamic kept me grounded and out of trouble.  It also help me become a world-class decision maker.

                    Supply & Demand: Dad talked about money, value and price over and over.  Understanding this dynamic still works for me today. Thanks Dad!

                    Fannin Tough: I didn’t know what this meant growing up.  It was just a firm, decisive mindset, especially when facing hardship or formidable challenges.  These lessons were learned from my ex-pro fighter Dad.  Listen to my last and only Gold Glove fight (which I lost) and hear what my Father did.

                    Drink Kentucky bourbon ONLY: Listen to my Father’s death bed list of items he wanted me to do.

                    Are you the best Father you can be? How about being the best son or daughter?  Learn the one tool to do before your Dad gets any older.   This is a potential game-changer for you,  your children and grandchildren.

                    Tip of the Day:   The best Zone performers in the world have fewer breathes per minute than the average person.  Find out where you stand. Take this tip seriously, if you want to be your best.

                    Like always, we visit the Zone Café to find out your missing link in attracting the Zone, especially at the right time and place.  I reveal what I need after my long hiatus.

                    On June 20, 2019,  I am “Live” on stage at 7:00pm at the Wilmette Theatre in downtown Wilmette, IL.  I’m the featured guest on Conversations With Weigel:  Jim Fannin (part of a series exploring spiritual enlightenment). Join Jenniffer Weigel and I in this interactive “Live” event.  Hope to see you there!

                    Have your best life now.  There’s no need to wait!  Until next week, be in the Zone in all you do!

                  • Jim Fannin Show: Hit The Ground Running

                    The year 2018 has come and gone. The calendar officially reads “2019.” The treadmills are packed at gyms across America. Ambitions and inspirational notes are scrolled on sticky notes attached to bathroom mirrors, computer monitors and car dashboards.

                    But for all the energy expended in January, the research shows 80% of people will fail at their 2019 goals by February 1st. The gung-ho attitude of January quickly fades into an “oh well, I tried” excuse within 30 days.

                    It doesn’t have to be this way! Today is 1/365 of reaching your annual visions and goals.  How are you doing so far? Over the course of coaching 2,500 of the top performers in sports, business and entertainment, not one has ever “burned out” on their goals in the first month. In fact, each were mental marathon runners that made it successfully through a full 12-months.

                    In this episode of The Jim Fannin Show, I’m going to show how to crush your 2019 visions and goals. Whether you’re a long-time Zoniac or brand new to the S.C.O.R.E.® Success System, I’m going to walk you through the proven tools and tactics to make 2019 your best year ever.

                    It’s time to hit the ground running!

                    In this episode, you’ll learn:

                    • Why the biggest priorities won’t just schedule themselves.
                    • The average person has 30-40 performances per week. I’ll walk you through how to succeed one at a time.
                    • How to plan mental and physical “replenish energy” breaks for 2019, from three minutes to three months.
                    • How to ensure every meeting this year is a highly productive Zone meeting.
                    • Finally, we stop by the Zone Café and send you out to begin the best year of your life!

                    • Jim Fannin Show: Prepping Your Best Year Ever

                      As we approach New Year’s Eve many people fall into two traps when setting goals for the next 365 days. The first is to aim too low and make the goal too vague. You’d be amazed at the number of pro sports teams I’ve interacted with that don’t have a stated vision with corresponding goals for the season. The second pitfall is confusing a tactic and a goal. “Stop swearing” is not a goal. It’s a tactic that’s part of a larger goal of “better communication.”

                      In this episode of The Jim Fannin Show, I preview the necessary mental building blocks for your greatest year ever. This starts with setting the “essential few” goals and seeing them mentally in full detail.

                      Plus, check out the candid interview with Cincinnati Reds outfielder Scott Schebler as he shares his experiences with the S.C.O.R.E.® System and its goal setting process for the 2019 season.

                      In this episode, you’ll also learn:

                      • How to sharpen the use of visualization to illuminate your pathway to success.
                      • The power of Synchronized Visualization.
                      • Understanding the difference between positive and negative anger.
                      • How to calm your thoughts in the 30 minutes before bed.
                      • What 100,000 plus Jim Fannin followers will be doing this New Year’s Eve to be ready for 2019.
                      • Finally, we stop by the Zone Café and send you out to your greatest week ever!

                      • Jim Fannin Show: Overcoming Negative Emotions During the Holidays

                        There’s a lot of cultural pressure to “feel” happy during the holiday season. But often feelings of grief, disappointment and loneliness can blindside even the most optimistic among us.

                        Recently at a social gathering a show listener questioned my “no bad days” policy. If you’re new to The Jim Fannin Show, it’s been more than 25,000 days since I’ve had a bad day. “No bad days” doesn’t mean I’ve never felt a twang of regret from putting a dent in my car or sadness at the loss of a loved one. However, I’ve discovered through the S.C.O.R.E. System, it’s possible to move on from negative emotions, regardless of your circumstance, condition or situation.

                        In this episode, you’ll know how to transform anger into positive action. Plus, we look at the “upside” of negative events and how even the most painful events can be transformed into tools for growth.

                        In this episode, you’ll also learn:

                        • The difference between Bad Anger and Good Anger.
                        • Why it’s vital to understand that anger is never the “first emotion” you feel.
                        • How lineman Charles Leno Jr. gave a standout performance that helped the Chicago Bears clinch the NFC North division, then proposed to his girlfriend moments after the game.
                        • How Oklahoma City Thunder forward Paul George attracted the Zone in December, including one stunning quarter with no missed shots.
                        • How a music video helped a homeless man reunite with his family, get a job and find love.
                        • Finally, we stop by the Zone Café and send you out to the best holiday season ever!

                          If you have questions, comments, or something you want us to cover during our “Ask Jim” segment, you can email Jim directly and we’ll cover it on next week’s show!

                        • Jim Fannin Show: Kindness, Competition, and You

                          “Those look like catcher’s hands,” I blurted out. It was an odd statement to make to a cab driver for sure, but it was the start of something amazing. “Yes I was,” he replied. Turns out the 70-year old man behind the wheel was a former professional player in the Negro Leagues.

                          The driver was a raving fan of the Cleveland Indians but had never seen his hometown team play live. Because I was coaching nine players on the team, I had tickets to the American League playoff game that evening.

                          I’ll never forget how the driver’s jaw dropped when I offered him enough cash to cover the earnings from his shift so he could attend the game with me. We sat behind home plate and discussed the nuances of the game under the lights of Jacobs Field.

                          So who got more out of this unexpected, once-in-a-lifetime event? I would argue that I’m the one who benefited most. Because nothing enhances your life like kindness. On this episode of the Jim Fannin Show, I’m going to walk you through the tips to spread kindness and positivity not just during the holiday season, but all year long.

                          In this episode, you’ll learn:

                          • Eleven tips for bolstering the virtue of kindness and how it directly impacts you
                          • How you can be ultra-competitive in sports and business without sacrificing kindness
                          • How the Chicago Bears defense shut down the LA Rams and didn’t allow one touchdown in an upset victory
                          • The incredible “trick play” that led to a Miami Dolphins win over the New England Patriots, thanks to the Dolphins unshakable optimism
                          • The new self-heating winter parka that can read your body temperature and can even be controlled with Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant
                          • A breakthrough that could lead to the reversal of osteoarthritis, which affects more than 20 million people
                          • Finally, we stop by the Zone Café to check your overall mindset and send you out to your greatest week ever!
