🫣 When I was young, my BIGGEST problem was…laziness!
🥺 I grew up in a home with limited financial resources, went to hostile schools, and lived in a lower middle class neighborhood. I knew I wanted OUT!
🤔 But l also knew deep down (although I couldn’t voice it at the time) that if I wanted to change my environment, I was going to have to change the programming inside of me.
🛐 I prayed for God to give me the solution.
📚 Then I found myself in a junior high school library filled with answers to everything under the sun!
💡I read Think & Grow Rich, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, The Purpose Driven Life, As a Man Thinketh, Many Lives, Many Masters, The Celestine Prophecy, and much, much more!
🤯 The RESULT? I began to take ownership of my laziness, my TIME USE, and all the little things that add up to my results (successes and failures).
🧐I gained clarity and focus on who I was and what I wanted. Then I started doing the WORK to change myself (inside & out).
🫵 YOU can change too!
At 13, I knew I wanted to become a lawyer. That vision I had for myself was almost achieved when I graduated from law school in 2018. (More on that story later.)
🤝 My name is John Tanner, and I am the co-founder of The Entrefluential Life, a personal development brand.
If what you’ve seen here resonated with you, it’s for a reason – we were meant to connect. I want to be your mentor, your teacher, your advisor, and your friend.
Come join my son and I every week for free entrepreneurship and influence (entrefluence) coaching 📲 @theentrefluentiallife as well as 🖥️⌨️ in our FB group and in our 🎙️📺 video podcast.
John holds four degrees (law, hotel management, literature & computer science, and theater), two decades of technical education, and has 30 years of extensive work experience in the fields of real estate property valuation, mortgage finance, home sales, teaching, and military service.
John is the founder and Broker-Owner of Coleman Tanner Realty 🏡 in Florida.
As a writer, John has been self-publishing books since 2012. His latest nonfiction book, The Entrefluential Broker, is a DIY guide to launching your own real estate brokerage business.
John’s forthcoming book, STR Conversions, will inform real estate investors of how to quadruple their rental income via his new “hotel hacking” strategy.
He plans on taking his lessons to online and offline speaking stages to share his tactics with investors in the second half of 2022.
To discuss speaking engagements and workshops, interested parties can send inquiries to john@colemantanner.com.
In addition to writing, John has a love for filmmaking that began while studying theater at Miami-Dade College in 1994.
John plans on overseeing the shooting of an in-house “reality tv” show for his real estate practice, Coleman Tanner Realty.
🎬 John also aspires to executive produce independent films that will be a hybrid of the film noir + murder mystery genre and something new, futuristic, and aesthetically appealing to modern day film enthusiasts (think, anime in real life meets Sherlock Holmes). He also enjoys romantic comedies and Hallmark dramas; he wrote a romantic novella, Faithfully, available on Amazon (under the pen name of Jack Morgan) - so stay tuned for romance films as well.
When he’s not 🖥 online studying film production, AirBnB, real estate, online marketing, or watching movies and his favorite TV shows on Netflix or the tube 📺 for inspiration.
🎼 John also enjoys playing the guitar 🎸 and piano 🎹 in his free time.
