How to Run for Mayor

    Become involved in community initiatives. As mayor, you’ll be involved in numerous aspects of the local community. You can get a head-start in local politics and government by becoming involved in community initiatives. Local community centers, churches, hospitals, or charities are a great place to get started.
Introduce yourself to community leaders and become an outspoken member of your city or town.
        Volunteer opportunities could include cleaning up a local park or serving soup at a homeless shelter.
        Network with those that are working to improve the conditions of the community you're living in.

    Build relationships with local businesses. The economy is an important aspect of any mayoral campaign. Introduce yourself to local businesses and develop relationships with them. Local companies will be interested in how you will affect their business if you're elected. Assure businesses that, once you're in office, you'll support policies that can help them.
        Get an understanding of the biggest businesses in your town or city and the issues that they regularly face.
        Identify the major industries in your area by finding statistics about the local economy and identifying the industries that are thriving.
        You can also gather data by asking local business owners questions about the economy in the area.
   
    Get experience by managing in the private sector instead. Any job that requires you to represent and manage a large number of people can provide the springboard you need to run for mayor. Make sure that your job requires you to make large management decisions or set company-wide policies. Before you run for mayor, you must have a proven track record in a leadership position.
        Examples of leadership positions include CEO, president, partner, or chief operations officer.
        Ex-mayor of New York City, Michael Bloomberg was in business for four decades before he decided to run for mayor.
        You should have enough experience to demonstrate that you can effectively lead people.

    Create a committee in larger cities. Most cities and some larger towns will require that you create a committee before you can declare your candidacy for mayor. The committee will become your election campaign team. Your committee needs to be established so that the government can track your campaign’s finances to make sure that your campaign is legal. A committee will have to include, at a minimum, a treasurer and chairperson.
      
 Select people who have experience in politics or running a campaign.

    Get a petition and the required signatures that you need. Pick up a petition to run for mayor from your city clerk. Most cities and towns require that you get signatures from citizens before you can be nominated as a candidate. The number of signatures that you need varies depending on how large your city is and how many residents it has. Try to get signatures from all the people you know first, then send out a canvassing team with your petition to get more signatures.

Does Your Personality Predict Your Happiness?      greatergood.berkeley.edu

Extraverts are happier, and so are the emotionally stable, personality researchers tell us. It also pays to be more open to new experiences, more agreeable, and more conscientious. What does that mean for the rest of us—the introverts, the neurotics, the disorganized?

You may recognize these personality dimensions as part of the Big Five, the traits that researchers are often referring to when they talk about personality. According to a 2008 review, the Big Five explain anywhere from 39 to 63 percent of the variation in well-being between people.

That’s enough to be discouraging, if you don’t fall into one of the “beneficial” categories. But don’t lose heart yet, the authors of a new study say. Each Big Five domain can be divided into two “aspects”—enthusiasm and assertiveness rather than simply “extraversion,” for example—and, it turns out, one of each pair is more predictive of well-being than the other.

In other words, rather than lumping ourselves (and others) into broad categories, we’d do better to understand these nuances and what they might mean for our pursuit of happiness.

In this study, researchers surveyed over 700 U.S. residents about their personality and their well-being. The personality questions (which you can answer for yourself) covered the ten aspects of the Big Five:

    Extraversion includes enthusiasm (being friendly and sociable) and assertiveness (dominating social situations).
    Neuroticism includes withdrawal (tending toward depression and anxiety) and volatility (tending toward anger).
    Conscientiousness includes industriousness (being hard-working and self-disciplined) and orderliness (being organized and preferring routines).
    Agreeableness includes compassion (being caring and empathic) and politeness (being respectful).
    Openness to experience includes openness (being creative and appreciating beauty) and intellect (being curious and reflective).

For well-being, researchers didn’t simply ask participants how happy they were. Their questions reflected three scientific measurements of well-being, capturing different visions of the good life. They asked about everything from feeling positive and satisfied with life, to experiencing a sense of meaning and purpose, to having loving and warm relationships, to feeling autonomous and in control.

In the end, the results offered greater clarity about the link between personality and well-being. Extraverted participants were indeed happier—but drilling down deeper, they found it was the more enthusiastic ones who tended to report higher life satisfaction, more positive emotions, and better relationships.
