Default Chewy Steaks

Hi all. Can someone tell me why my steaks are always coming out chewy?
I had approx 1/2" thick steaks, marinated overnight, allowed to come to room temp. Grilled 6 minutes per side, allowed to rest for 10 minutes, and my son tells me the steaks are chewy. I'm about ready to give up. How do I make them fork tender.

Oh. I also have some pork cutlets approx 1/4" thick. How would I grill these so they don't end up as hockey pucks.

Thanks for any help.
