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.

Hi Everyone, Emily has been providing us with tip-top and excellent service throughout the many years that she has been our insurance agent. Her quick response and professional advice has always been appreciated by my wife and I as well as our family. Emily's extensive knowledge and experience in the financial planning/insurance industry is of great importance to us as she provides sound advice for our insurance requirements. Through the many years, we have become more than agent/client. We are close family friends now.

Hi Everyone, I personally do not believe in Insurance all my life until my wife was diagnosed with rare lung cancer stage IV in 2019. My late wife approached Emily to complain about severe backache. Emily arranged an orthopedic doctor to see her. Emily also took the time to fetch her to the doctor and stayed with her to accompany her the whole day. She also fetched her from chemo on days when I was busy with my work. Which agent would do that? Only Emily would do it! Not only Emily took care of my wife’s hospitalization claims, but she also took care of my wife spirituality. My wife was called home to the Lord after almost 2 years of fight with cancer. Emily also helped me process claims from other Insurers too. Emily has become my family member too. Recently, she also helped my maid Jiabao and accompanied her to SGH and private doctor to check on her health issue. Thanks Emily with gratitude! Talk to her and get yourself protected. I too, have just got my overdue hospitalization policies which she approached me in 2010. If not for Emily’s help, I won’t know how to pay off my wife’s treatment bills which amount to 6 figures.

Hi Emily, I believe my journey with you, which started during one of the lowest points in my life, will go far. My husband had got himself a rare policy in order to support his ex-colleague – Emily Lim. A kind deed deserves another. When he passed on in 2016, Emily impressed me with her efficiency with a human touch when she helped process the policy claim. We had been friends since. Emily has been a financial advisor to me like none other (I have four or five others). She keeps in touch intrusively. From her casual sharing, I hear of how she befriends her clients who need help and would go out of her way to assist, often what even family members would do. I was touched by her concern for her staff, coaching them and giving them a leg-up when necessary, beyond work to their spiritual needs. Her role-modelling of attending to persons as a total fellow human being with multi-faceted needs would be helpful to those who are willing to learn from her. As I age, I’m confident that I have a companion in Emily, as a friend and financial consultant who would be ready to assist and advise when necessary. I thank God for you, Emily. May He continue to show you favour and anoint you with His love.

Hi Everyone, I have a very good relationship with Emily. Her ever-ready helpful, kind & positive attitude has always provided me & my families’ members with her First Class service. I have decided to engage Emily as my financial planner cause I have witnessed how she will always go thru the extra-mile to assist all of my other families members especially from being there with them during those final moments till processing the claims. I truly appreciate the speed all my claims were processed so far especially when I had a fracture 3 years ago. Not forgetting the off-&-on TCM treatment claims for my lower back injury, incurred from a fall at home too. She also helped me with my travel baggage claims when my luggage was damaged at the airport on one of my holiday trips couple of years ago. Hence I strongly recommend Emily for your financial planning as she has me & my family best interest at heart.

Hi Everyone, I have always struggled to find my place in the world. So it was easy for me to settle into a reserved geeky existence. However the harsh and expensive reality of life makes it impossible to continue living that way. Moreover it was particularly painful when family who knows me and cares for me worries whether I would make it in life. Hence I made 180 degree switch into sales and business and never looked back. Changing and transforming to be better is painful and often times frustrating. Even more so when you are finding your way on your own without guidance. Things truly change for me when I met Emily and joined her team. My stars change, from a dependent and hopeless nobody into an independent and thriving agent, husband, father and son to his family and clients. I have been blessed with many great leaders in my life but Emily is truly one of a kind. Through blood, sweat and tears she is fully committed to the transformation, livelihood and my growth as well as her team. Results don't lie. I have grown to believe in myself and begin to see how things can turn out well. I am able to see how I can have a happy succesful and fulfilled life thanks to Emily. If you are looking to change your stars? My question to you is "What are you WAITING FOR?" Although Emily would be constantly knocking at your door, the question you need to come to terms with is this: "How much longer do you want to delay your breakthrough and get closer to the life of your choosing?". The opportunity is already here.
