5 Big Thoughts for Today…

1.What brings you the MOST joy & happiness these days?

I’ve been doing a lot of virtual talks & keynotes lately. I did a “Get Your Mind Right” talk yesterday to an elite group of financial advisors. I had five major points to help these “high-performers” maximize their time, energy, and focus…and get their minds right!

One of the questions I asked the attendees in the keynote is a question I would like to ask you…

“What are five things you are doing these days that are bringing you the most joy, happiness, and fulfillment?”

For me, my answer would be…

  1. Writing. This includes books, blogs, and content-laden emails (like today’s TD-Times newsletter).
  2. Speaking. While I prefer a stage and “live” audience at a conference or meeting, it’s pretty cool you can reach hundreds or even thousands of people on a Zoom. I can’t wait to get back to doing some live events later this year. Until then, Zoom will do!
  3. Creating content. This includes podcasts, social media posts, “lives,” etc.
  4. Family time. I’ve been cherishing time with my 3-kids and wife Melanie (we celebrate 20-years next week!). I still can’t believe my oldest is off to college next Fall.
  5. Training. I love teaching my classes and still love training my clients & athletes. While it still is predominately “outside,” we are fortunate here in San Diego to be in such a mild climate.

How about you? What are 3-5 things YOU love to do…?

Whatever they are, be sure to DO MORE of what you love doing…and less of what you don’t like doing! 🙂

And oh-yeah, GET YOUR MIND RIGHT!!!

2. Get the Kids Back to School and LET THEM PLAY!!!

48 out of 50 states have had high school sports, including football, this year. CA is one of them that has NOT.

Many of the kids out here have NOT been in school and have NOT participated in sports for almost a year. It’s literally crushing our kid’s mental health. Depression is up. Anxiety is up. Suicide rates are up.

Enough is enough. Kids need to be in school. And they need to get back to their activities, which includes all sports. And yes, we can do it safely.

A big decision is looming in CA this week as to the status of school and sports. Let’s pray that Governor Newsom does the right thing.

Simple…Get the kids BACK TO SCHOOL and #LetThemPlay

3. The Mystery Prayer Man.

A friend sent this to me just yesterday. It’s a great insight on Drew Brees.A pretty cool story that I didn’t even know he was doing. #LoveThis

4. “Exceptional Expansion—Part 2” is Coming SOON!

I recently shared some HUGE NEWS of how Fitness Quest 10 & TD Enterprises is growing. We are doubling-down in so many ways, including renovating BOTH locations. Wait until you see the finished “products.”

As a matter of fact, I just recorded Part-2 of my “Exceptional Expansion” podcast episode with GM & budding business partner Jeff Bristol yesterday. It was as deep a share you will EVER hear. And I think you are going to love it. Jeff & I share our vision of the future and talk about what led us to this point in our careers where we could both make some BIG moves.

Julie Wilcox interviews both Jeff Bristol & me in yesterdays recording of “Exceptional Expansion—Part 2.”

While this episode quite yet, BE SURE TO LISTEN TO PART 1 of “EXCEPTIONAL EXPANSION” today…

5. Someone asked me recently if wearing a grey hoodie really works.

What do you mean by “works?” I asked. And then quickly followed up with, “Of course flipping the hood-up on a grey hoodie WORKS. It’s the quickest trigger to signal to GET YOUR MIND RIGHT at a moment’s notice.”

Sometimes you gotta go to another zone. Sometimes you need tunnel vision. Sometimes you want to tune the world out and go deep within.

That’s called Grey Hoodie Time. Not a blue hoodie. Or a red hoodie. Or any other color hoodie. I like all hoodies.

But if you want maximum effects…
It’s gotta be grey. It’s gotta be UA. And it’s gotta fit and feel just right.

So, of course, it works. GET YOUR MIND RIGHT! It’s #GreyHoodieTime

This what you do when you need to flip-the-switch
and GET YOUR MIND RIGHT

5 Random Thoughts. Hopefully, you enjoyed the array of topics I covered today and that at least ONE OF THEM spoke to you.

Finish the week strong, and let’s make sure to GET YOUR MIND RIGHT!

Much love,

Todd

“Get your mind right!” boomed over the speakers and the session took off like a rocket. After three long years, the Hand & Stone franchise community was gathering for our International Conference in San Antonio, TX. Our community had endured nearly three years of constant change, and we gathered to celebrate- both the rich history of the organization and the bold, new paths we were planning to walk in the future. In that space, Todd Durkin was the perfect choice to keynote our general session. The 800+ attendees were challenged, motivated, and most importantly inspired by TD’s incredibly dynamic session. Equal parts vision and actionable framework, Todd’s talk was one of the highlights of the conference, and our community left with a renewed purpose to become the very best of themselves.

John Teza

President & CEO, Hand and Stone Franchise Corp.

I have known Todd since 2012 when I read his ‘IMPACT Body Plan’ book. I have been to many of his events, read all his books, listen to his podcasts, have hired him multiple times to speak at my company, and I still get coached by him today. To say he’s been a big part of the success of Nassau FG and has also had huge IMPACT on me as a father, husband, and man is an understatement. Todd Durkin is the real-deal. When I say “Iron Sharpens Iron,” TD is one of those people who sharpens me. Let him sharpen you also!

Gus Cheliotis

GENERAL COUNSEL & COO, NASSAU FINANCIAL GROUP

The time that Todd spent with our Leadership Team was focused, intentional, and direct. He inspired us to refine how we lead ourselves and our team of 160 people to ensure we are making the most IMPACT possible in their lives, our clients’ lives, and our community. His energy is unmatched and his ability to connect with individuals is remarkable.

He is a life coach and leadership master to those who are in sports and business.

Brad Deutser

We brought Todd in for a virtual keynote for our Leadership, Education, Advocacy, and Development Group for Women. It was amazing to see how he not only connected with everyone through the screen, but you could literally feel his energy and passion as if he was living on stage with us. He not only inspired us and reminded us of the grit needed to “Get your mind right,” but also gave us actionable habits and homework to be the best version of ourselves. Todd gave us an outstanding presentation and truly inspires greatness every day!

Susan Couch

SVP Business Banking Client Manager, Bank of America

We invited Todd to have an impact on our sales and account management teams – to inspire them to think about personal health and well-being and to do so on an intellectual, emotional, and spiritual level. His presentation translated to lasting behavior change amongst our associates. From the moment Todd began his presentation, the teams were transfixed by his genuine energy and powerful, impactful messages about personal growth and accountability to the organization. Although Todd has trained many famous athletes, I highly encourage company leaders to understand that his messages are applicable to everyone in all industries. When you invite Todd to be a part of your life, your organization, you better be careful – he will make you better.

I attended the Todd Durkin Mastermind retreat in White Fish, Montana, because I know that to be a successful fitness professional and entrepreneur, I need to stay lit up and energized. Members of the TD Mastermind are passionate and elite at what they do because they put in the work and help others along the way. The TD Mastermind is a place to feel supported, cared about, seen, and inspired to do more for others. We are all on a mission, and we can’t do it alone. The members, coaches, and of course, Todd inspire me to be better and to do more. With the help of the TD Mastermind, I will go back to my community inspired and equipped with tools that needed sharpening. Montana was glorious, but this trip was all about the people.

I attended the Todd Durkin Mastermind retreat in Whitefish, MT, and have been an Institute level member since 2019. As a younger fitness professional with 8 years in the industry, joining the Mastermind has been a Godsend for my personal, professional, and spiritual growth. The Todd Durkin Mastermind consists of some of the best and consummate fitness professionals/business owners around the world, but most importantly, a goldmine of good, genuine people. Our visions, careers, service to others, and legacies require us to go deep into who we are and what we do as professionals. However, it’s the high-level coaching, support of fellow members, and commitment to sharpening each other that take us to different levels. Iron sharpens Iron.

Tim Carter

TD Mastermind Member

Joining the Todd Durkin Mastermind has been one of the best decisions, both professionally and personally I’ve ever made. To be part of a community with heart-centered leaders, who truly want the best for each other, has positively spilled into all areas of my life. The coaching from each leader and member of the TD Mastermind is world-class, genuine, and personal and has helped me grow and lead my team. I’ve had a safe community to come with any struggle, hardship, or big decision that felt overwhelming to navigate alone. We give so much of our hearts and souls in this industry, it’s important to have a place to fill back up with. Coming together at retreats gives you all the octane and more to keep chasing dreams and changing lives. Investing in the mastermind and being part of this community has proved beyond my expectations in every way. If you want to be part of a team who sees your strength, pushes you to greatness, and is there to catch you when you fall – the TD Mastermind is where it’s at!

The Todd Durkin Mastermind is my extended fitness family. Each time we gather, we seem to grow even closer as time continues to change us and our businesses. It just feels right. It is not always about crunching numbers, the number of new sign-ups, or how many programs we have running. It runs much deeper. As we grow older relationships and time become more valuable. You have only so many more clicks of the clock and encounters and experiences. They should be spent with those who elevate you. The TD Mastermind does just that!
