I love this picture. Maybe it’s the old ball coach in me that enjoys seeing pictures of any kind of basketball court, especially historic or unique.
This also reminds me of a time in my childhood when I would cut the bottoms out of papersacks, tape them to the top of door frames and run up and down an L-shaped hallway playing basketball “full court”.
When I was seven year’s old I was starting to figure out this phrase “where there is a will there is a way” in a hallway.
This is not earth shattering but it is a reminder that sometimes, many times, a solution will take creativity, imagination, and using the resources that you have available.
If you really want something and you feel that it is the right thing to do then find a way to make it happen. Sometimes that is half of the fun.
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.
