I used to always use the “Golden Rule” in my classroom as a starting point for treating others. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
Now I believe there is something more.
“Do for others what they can’t do for themselves.”
You have been given unique talents and gifts so it becomes important for you to use those to lift others up and help them get to places they cannot get to on their own.
I believe that what we give away to others we get back in return and it is returned in abundance. It is not given for the return but as a heart felt gift. The return is a bonus.
Whether you have alot to give or just a little you have the ability and the opportunity to help someone do what they can’t do for themselves. The important thing is that you give.
Lift someone higher today.
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.
