Closer Than Yesterday

Sometimes the best and most memorable journeys take time.  Getting in your car and driving to your favorite sunny destination may take a few days but think of the sites you would see and things you would experience along the way. 

Day by day you would get closer to your goal but you had to start and you had to have a plan.  The plan may not include stormy weather, a flat tire or unplanned delays or detours but every day you get closer.

What about your goals?  They don’t always go as planned but that doesn’t mean you are not making progress.

Slow progress is better than no progress.  Every step forward is a step closer to where you want to be.  Don’t be discouraged if you don’t get there as quickly as you may have planned.

Believe that you will get there.  You will arrive. You are closer than you were yesterday.  Stay on your journey and on the path that is ahead of you today.  Today’s path must be traveled to get where you are headed.

I’m cheering for you.

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.
