CHASE YOUR DREAMS

What dreams do you have in front of you today?

You probably already know there is no magic formula to make them a reality. Sorry, you won’t find it here either.

Everybody has dreams but very few have the perseverance to continue to pursue them. If your dream is worth it here is what I suggest you do.

Get Up!

Show Up!

Keep Moving, even if it is just a little bit, toward the dream!

Chase it!

Pursue it!

There are lots of dreams but fewer realized because we think the dream should happen in our timing.

The dream will happen when we’re ready and when the time is right. Our job is to be faithful to today and keep dreaming that dream.

The time will be right when the time is right. Keep moving.

Meet Todd Gordon, a seasoned educator, coach, and activities administrator who dedicated an impressive 37 years to shaping the lives of students within the realm of education.  His career has taken him on a remarkable journey through nine different school districts, ranging from the intimate setting of a small school to the dynamic landscape of a large, multi-high school urban district – truly everything in between. In 2022, Todd embarked on a new chapter, retiring from his illustrious career in education. However, retirement did not signal an end to his passion for making a positive impact in the realm of sports and activities.  Todd joined BOUND, a leading sports software company, where he continues to contribute his wealth of experience and knowledge to support activity administrators and coaches. Beyond the professional arena, Todd’s personal life is a testament to dedication and enduring love.  Married to his wife, Deb, for an impressive 40 years, they have navigated life’s journey together.  Their family has grown to include three married children, each on their unique paths, and six delightful grandchildren who bring joy and laughter to their lives. Todd authored and published his first book, “The Power of One.  One Word Leadership”, in 2022.   His newest project is the “The Pursuit”, and it starts with new writings on a new page on this website.  Todd delves into the essence of your daily pursuit of excellence, offering insights on growth, resilience, and the power of redemption.  By weaving daily Scripture insights into our exploration, we bridge the timeless with the contemporary, inviting you to reflect on leadership principles grounded in spiritual wisdom.
