What gives In The Zone and its duration

The Base game version makes your Sim Focused with a weight of 2. The emotion with the largest total weight sets your Sim's mood. This version lasts 8 hours, which is 480 Sim minutes, and lists no specific interactions that give it.

The City Living version makes your Sim Energized with a weight of 1. You get it from the 2 Pointers, Close Shot, Dream Big, Free Throws, or Layup interactions. It lasts 1 hour, which is 60 Sim minutes.

How to avoid or remove In The Zone

To avoid the City Living version, skip the 2 Pointers, Close Shot, Dream Big, Free Throws, and Layup interactions. If your Sim gets either version, you can wait 1 hour or 8 hours in Sim time for the timer to expire.

You can also remove that one version from your active Sim early with a cheat in Live mode. Open the cheat console by pressing Ctrl + Shift + C on PC or Cmd + Shift + C on Mac. Type testingcheats true first, and then enter sims.remove_buff buff_Trait_Perfectionist_InTheZone.
