Advice to new Pepperdine grads: Creatively and intentionally develop purpose, service, and leadership in your work. It's possible to be a self-centered worker in the nonprofit sector, just as much as it's possible to be an accountant or marketing exec living out selfless service. Don't let assumptions about your industry or seniority limit your intentional cultivation and application of core values and character. What would you add? 💙🧡 🌊

This month marks the 19th anniversary of an important milestone in my life - becoming a Freemason. On October 12th, 2004, I was initiated as an Entered Apprentice in the Grand Lodge of Indiana, Free & Accepted Masons. The things I learned that first year are wholly applicable to anyone's life, regardless of where they learn them or what organization they belong to. Looking back, I can see how those initial lessons have continued guiding me personally and professionally over the past two decades. Some of the core principles instilled in me during my early Masonic education were the importance of brotherly love, relief, and truth. Practicing those virtues has helped strengthen my character and relationships. A key takeaway was the guidance to adopt a system of priorities - to put family, faith, community, and career in proper order. Maintaining balance across those spheres has allowed me to avoid stress and make the most out of each role in my life. It's taught me that our time and energy are limited resources that deserve wise allocation. The emphasis on personal and intellectual growth has been another valuable lesson. Freemasonry challenged me to constantly seek knowledge and self-improvement through study, contemplation, and applying moral lessons in my daily actions. That drive has helped my career progression as new challenges presented themselves over the years. Looking ahead, I hope to continue learning and putting into practice the Masonic pillars of wisdom, inner strength, and service to others. The cornerstones laid during my initiation so long ago still ring true and continue shaping me into a better person. I'm grateful for the brotherhood's lasting positive influence on my path through life and work. If I have one reflection, it's that I wish these Masonic principles of virtue, balanced priorities, and commitment to growth were instilled even earlier in life, such as during high school. So many students would benefit from guidance on cultivating strong character, understanding how to avoid stress and maintain well-being, and discovering the rewards of lifelong learning. It would set them up for healthier, more fulfilling lives after graduation, regardless of their chosen career path. As a society, we'd be well served if more of the teachings I received as a new Freemason were integrated into standard education at a younger age.

Yesterday celebrated my 74th birthday. That’s about 27,028 individually lived days. Often we start our day as a struggle to see if our resources are going to meet the day’s challenges. What if we changed that perspective to seeing our day as opportunities to learn and help? When I became Senior Director of Education at the Bidwell Training Center a year ago, I adopted these two questions as the starting point of every day: What will I learn today? and, Who will I help today? The first question resets all my daily encounters as learning opportunities rather than frustrations, dissapointments, conflict, etc. The most important learning that happens is about myself. I get to ask myself questions like, Why did that frustrate me? Why was I disappointed by that? Why do I feel there’s a conflict in this situation? I have found that resolving a situation by authority usually means that I will face the situation again, however, solving a situation by learning about myself and those involved usually allows all to build a mutual solution that we all can use again and again. The second question has brought a positive context to all my daily encounters. I meet with multiple staff members and students every day. The question, “Who will I help today?” forms the predicate for those meetings. They are not interruptions or distractions. They are part of my fundamental reason for being where I am today. They are who I will help. I remind myself constantly, “If you’re not here to help then why are you still here?” I know I will have another great day tomorrow because I will learn more about myself and, I am sure, will find someone to help. I hope your day will be as great as mine.

📸 SIPA Snapshot: Aura Cifuentes MPA-GL '24 on how SIPA's mid-career program encourages students to bring their loved ones along: "I live here in New York with my dog. Her name is Amelie. I brought her here from Colombia. And one of the things that I really think is incredible from the MPA-GL program is that the program is a zone for people that already have their children, their partners, their dogs — and we are all like a family. It's a small cohort, and Amelie is part of that cohort." Learn more about the MPA-GL program: https://lnkd.in/guc2ARMN
