A Monthly Curated Newsletter

As we begin a fresh year, it is a good idea to not just evaluate ourselves based on the previous year on how we have been managing our lives, but also to find out ways to become more productive as we move along. In this issue, I'd like to share with you some powerful ideas on productivity and how we can make the best of our resources, time, energy and capabilities. Let's do this!

Why "Done is Better Than Perfect" by Sheryl Sandberg

The CEO of Facebook, Sheryl Sandberg, has one of the best success quotes to live by: Done is Better Than Perfect. The innovative products that we know are constantly evolving; and we're not likely to ever reach perfection as no one has. Instead, getting things done is more important than being perfect, and this applies to various areas in our lives.

Creating Time: How to Master the Art of Intentionality

Global economic indicators suggest that despite the additional hours that people work daily, outcomes remain low. Everyone is busy — but that isn’t necessarily translating into productivity. According to Harvard University researchers, our attention wanders away from what we’re doing 46.9% of the time. For both leaders and employees, that’s half the work day. Half a day of not being fully present with tasks and people. This lack of presence is costly.

Yan Da , Facility Engineer

Get to know Alvin through a close friend and bought some plans from him. Alvin is very responsive to all my queries for 4 years.

Researcher, Physical Science, Wee Jian

Reconnected with Alvin about 4 years ago with interests of getting insurance policy. He was very patient in explaining the need of policy one should have and was not pushy unlike other agents that I have met. Throughout the years, he has been constantly following up with the policy I have and reviewing it as necessary. I would recommend engaging Alvin if anyone’s would require any kind of assistance in insurance policy.

Meng Yao SAF OFFICER

Personally, I am holding multiple insurance policies with other Financial Consultant and I have to say Alvin is different from the rest. He will find time to update on his customers the latest policy changes and try to understand them better. I was glad that he created an infographic to summarise my insurance coverage as it helps me to understand the overview of my insurance coverage. He is also knowledgeable in this field and explains very clearly in simple terms.

A great agent to have!

Rixing, Doctor

Alvin is a young hardworking gentleman. Pleasant and explains the bigger picture before elaborating on the details that you are interested in. Absolutely not pushy with any of the products and at no point do I feel obliged/forced to sign up for anything. He is young and plans to stay in the industry for many years. As such, he is someone I would recommend to others as he will be able to follow up with your portfolio in the years to come.
