Mental performance coach Jim Fannin addresses one of the most difficult and real experiences in life: depression.

From lossof motivation to overwhelming emotional fatigue, depression robs you of your clarity, identity, and momentum. But there is a way forward. And it starts with just one shift.

🏆 In the Zone This Week: 🔥 Patrick Mahomes – The definition of resilience and consistency. He’s leading from the front and keeping his team locked in. 🔥 Cincinnati Reds & Cleveland Guardians – Both teams made the playoffs after seasons of ups and downs. They stayed in the fight. They believed. 💬 They’re not just winning games—they’re winning the mental battle.

🧊 Not in the Zone: ❄️ Tennessee Titans – A team stuck in emotional quicksand. Playing reactive instead of proactive football. ❄️ Cam Ward’s recent comments – Mentally disconnected and not aligned with his leadership moment. ❄️ New York Mets – Missed the playoffs. Loaded roster. Zero rhythm. The pressure never turned into momentum.

Your mind is influenced by everything you see—every day. That’s the power of “seeables.” From cluttered desks to chaotic sidelines, what’s in your line of sight either supports your performance… or breaks your mental rhythm.

Mental performance coach Jim Fannin breaks down the overlooked—but critical—concept of seeables and how top performers use visual cues to create calm, control, and consistency.

🎯 When your environment is messy, your thoughts follow. 🧠 When your visuals are intentional, so is your mindset.
