The amount of talent in a city like Nashville is amazing. There are thousands upon thousands of musicians in The Music City. I would assume many of them with a dream of “making it” and being a full time musician. The reality is that less than 1% make it.
The musicians that come to The Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar ranged in age from what looked like a high school student to a guy in his 50’s that looked like he was a HS English teacher. All with a dream.
Dreams have to big and they have to be relentlessly pursued day after day, week after week. I would have been curious to see if a lot of the musicians that showed up last night were the same as the week before when we were there. My guess is yes.
Are your dreams big enough? Are you relentlessly pursuing them? Are you keeping them alive?
Take an honest look and make an honest evaluation. If you need to develop a plan to relentlessly pursue your dream let today be the day that you do that.
Talk to someone about it. Message me, DM me, email me if I can help you keep your dream alive.
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.
