By Todd Durkin, MA, C.S.C.S. The Thursday night kickoff of the 2011 NFL season was a high-scoring, crowd-pleasing match between the New Orleans Saints and the Green Bay Packers. Back-to-back Super Bowl champions… What a way to start the season! I’d been gearing up for days. This was going to be a showdown pitting several […]
By Todd Durkin, MA, C.S.C.S. People often ask me the question, “How do you get done all that you get done in a day?” My answer is actually a fairly simple one.

By Todd Durkin, MA, C.S.C.S. I recently spent time with a 25- year veteran of the fitness field whom asked for my guidance. He runs a successful business, presents at major conferences, and influences many people. Not knowing exactly what he needed, he began to tell me about his “successful” career.

I was totally frustrated that night. […]
Do you ever get frustrated? Do you ever lose your patience? Are there people or situations in your life that occasionally drive you nuts? If you answered “yes” to any of the above, I empathize with you. I’m a very positive person. Partly, it’s my “makeup” and partly it’s my choice. People sometimes ask if […]
Last month, I started a Get Serious Campaign when I realized that too many clients and friends talk about goals without taking action. I’m all about setting goals – even big, hairy, audacious goals – but a goal without action is like a boat without water. What’s the purpose? My friends, goals are meant to […]
There’s no surprise in the fact that I spend time each and every day talking with people about their goals. After all, as a trainer and performance coach, that’s what I do. Normally, I love this part of my work. I like nothing better than to see my clients, teammates and friends succeed. You might […]
