Upcoming Goals

Thanks to Raul Pacheco on Twit­ter, I have decided to set my own goals for 2010.  In addi­tion, thanks to Tay­lor “Loren” on Twit­ter, I have decided to use Lul­ule­mon Goal­tender to set my goals.

Accord­ing to the web­site, “a goal is a writ­ten, mea­sur­able state­ment with a spe­cific sub­ject and a dead­line.  A goal is a mile­stone in the cre­ation of [us] ideal life.  A goal is what inspires [us] to do the work everyday.”

On the web­site, it has 3 cat­e­gories of goals — career, per­sonal, and health.  My goals are as follows:

Career

• 10 Year Goal — By 2020, I will become a Mem­ber of Par­lia­ment in Canada for the Con­ser­v­a­tive Party of Canada.  I will have passed my first pri­vate mem­ber bill by then.  I hope I will have the hon­our to serve under the gov­ern­ment of the Right Hon­ourable Prime Min­is­ter Stephen Harper.  I will be run­ning in the newly cre­ated rid­ing that has West­wood Plateau in it.  Due to the bi-polar offi­cial oppo­si­tion, who knows which year I will be able to run.
• 5 Year Goal — By 2015, I will become a Mem­ber of Leg­isla­tive Assem­bly in British Colum­bia with the BC Lib­eral Party.  While I am a Mem­ber of Leg­isla­tive Assem­bly, I will deliver a viable and effec­tive pub­lic trans­porta­tion sys­tem for all British Columbians.  I hope I will have the hon­our to serve under the assem­bly of Hon­ourable Pre­mier Gor­don Camp­bell.  The next elec­tion will be held on May 14, 2013.  I will make sure I become a can­di­date by then.  I will run in either Coquitlam-Maillardville or Coquitlam-Burke Mountain.
• 1 Year Goal — By 2011, I will become a City Coun­cil­lor in the City of Coquit­lam.  This 1 year goal is effec­tive until the end of 2011.  Dur­ing this time, there will be 1 by-election (March 2010) and 1 civic gen­eral elec­tion (Nov 2011).

Edu­ca­tion

• 10 Year Goal — By 2020, I should have fin­ished with my Bach­e­lor of Law or Mas­ter of Pub­lic Pol­icy.
• 5 Year Goal — By 2016, I should have grad­u­ated with both my Bach­e­lor of Arts (Polit­i­cal Sci­ence and Crim­i­nol­ogy) and Bach­e­lor of Sci­ence (Com­puter Sci­ence and Math­e­mat­ics) from Simon Fraser Uni­ver­sity.
• 1 Year Goal — By 2011, I should have grad­u­ated by now if I were doing 1 degree.  But I am not.  I am doing 2 degrees.  It was a bad idea but it is good in the long run.  By 2011, I should stop tak­ing any courses lower than 3rd year.

Health

• 10 Year Goal — By the end of 2020, I will have the abil­ity to walk 4 polls a day.
• 5 Year Goal — By the end of 2016, I will have the abil­ity to walk 3 polls a day.
• 1 Year Goal — By the end of 2011, I will have the abil­ity to walk 2 polls a day.
• When not doing data entry or IT stuff dur­ing fed­eral, provin­cial, or munic­i­pal elec­tions, I will be doing door-knocking.  Unless I am a Mem­ber of Leg­isla­tive Assem­bly or Mem­ber of Par­lia­ment, I will be out help­ing dur­ing every elec­tion — fed­eral, provin­cial or municipal.

For those who are not inter­ested in pol­i­tics, elec­toral dis­tricts are divided into smaller geo­graphic sec­tions called polls (also known as polling divi­sion).  A list of elec­tors and a polling sta­tion is set up for each polling divi­sion.  There are usu­ally 6–12 polling sta­tions set up at each polling loca­tion (usu­ally a church or school).
