Tim Ferris is an American entrepreneur, investor, author, podcaster, and lifestyle guru. He is creative and busy. He coined the simple four word phrase, “make before you manage” to remind him to remain creative.
You’re busy too, but are you taking time to be creative. You don’t have to be as busy as Tim Ferris, but you were born to be creative. It is important that you take time to be creative and be balanced before you start managing your day to day tasks.
You are going to have bad days, bad weeks, and yes, even bad months. During those hectic times your routine can feel non existent. Find a way to stay in balance.
You may not have time to meditate for 20 minutes, exercise for 30, and journal for 20 minutes, and that’s alright.
This doesn’t mean you can’t take 2 minutes and do something creative to stimulate your mind and move your creativity forward by just a little bit.
Small and slow progress is better than no progress in every area of your life. Sometimes we neglect ourself when that is the most important person we need to take care of to effectively impact others.
The world, and the busy, can wait for a few minutes. Take a little time to set the right tone for the day so the day doesn’t immediately set the tone 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.
