Be Who You Are

You are special.
You are unique.
You have been given a set of skills and talents that no one else has been given. 

Your talents and the circle of influence that you have with your family, friends and at your work put you in a place no one else is in and no one else can influence.

Too many people try to be like someone they know, someone they admire or someone who has what they think they want.  Learning from people is one thing but trying to be just like them is something to avoid.

You will be happiest and richly blessed when you discover and be who you truly are.  People will then come to know, respect and depend on you for who you are.

This will lead you to being in a place that is a good fit for you and your talents.  Finding that fit may take some time but it will happen if you continue to stay true to who you are.  Be patient on your journey.  It will be worth it.

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.
