IF YOU'RE GOING TO SET THE STANDARD,

YOU HAVE TO BE THE STANDARD.

TASK FORCE DAD (TF-DAD) is a highly curated, non-exclusive community of dads committed to becoming THE BEST DAD EVER, and where your membership is EARNED, NOT PROVIDED.

THE VALUE OF A CREED

Throughout human history, creeds have been used to articulate the ethos and values expected of their members, reinforcing commitment to duty, honor, and camaraderie. They serve as a reminder during moments of challenge or hardship, grounding members in their purpose, a fall back when things are tough.

Creeds are powerful because they fulfill a deep psychological and social need. They provide clarity, identity, and purpose

in an otherwise chaotic and unpredictable world. Our creed serves to bring clarity to our values, unify our community, inspire and motivate as needed and maintain the legacy of integrity and accountability we need to keep us focused on the task at hand.


For Task Force Dad, the creed isn’t just words—it’s our mission. It’s our rally point, a shared purpose, and a constant reminder of the legacy we are building. When life gets tough or the noise of the world distracts them, the creed pulls us back to our core commitment: being the best dad we can be.

THE TF-DAD CREED

T: Take Responsibility


Taking responsibility for the life I have chosen, I am the leader of my family, and I fully embrace my responsibility for creating a home where my children feel safe, loved, and valued. I will show up every day with purpose, knowing my actions set the example for generations to come.

F: Forge Connection


Forging and fostering connection, I will build unbreakable bonds with my children and my family through trust, presence, and action. I will make time, listen fully, and show them they are seen and heard, no matter how busy life gets.

D: Defend What Matters


Defending what matters most, I will protect my family—physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I will hold the line against distractions, negativity, and anything that threatens our peace or connection. My strength will be their safety.

A: Advance Every Day


Advancing every single day, I will strive to grow as a father and man. Each day is an opportunity to learn, improve, and show up better than I did yesterday. I will embrace the mission of becoming the best version of myself, step by step.

D: Demonstrate Integrity


Demonstrating integrity, I will lead by example in all things, holding myself to the highest standard of honesty, humility, and courage. My actions will speak louder than my words, and I will earn my family’s trust through consistency and love.
