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. | The Perfectionist Trap | Celina Belizan | Proudly Brought to You I seek to reach out to people who believe in safeguarding the interests of their loved ones. Let me know if I can be of help to someone you know or care about. We can make a difference to lives when it matters most.

He’s been handling our family’s policies ever since then. He’s not pushy, and recommends stuff that you need and relatable to his family experiences coz he’s also a father to his kids. He’s also dependable when you are in need and you know he’ll be in this business for the long run so you can trust him with your life policies. | | | Cathy Chan Joshua has been my advisor since my 20s and I am grateful to have such an experienced and dedicated person through my life journey.
Managing life's risks is a lot simpler, robust yet reliable with solutions that are practical and human with Joshua's support.
He is patient, prompt and solutions-oriented. Most importantly, you can trust that he will fight for you, for your benefits. | | | Weng Tatt & Yin Hui Joshua has been a great agent and advisor to my wife and I since we came over to SG. He is always willing to share his view and offer his suggestions to us (both as an agent and friend). Even when he's travelling (not in SG), he is still responsive to our queries, which we really appreciate. | | | Rev Yong and Valerie I have known Joshua as a friend for more than 10 years. When my original financial agent left, I was actually left "agent-less". To be fair, AIA did assign me someone but no one touched base with me. When I approached Joshua to be my financial advisor, he readily agreed even though he did not receive any financial gains from this change. As my agent, he is committed and dedicated to his role. He does not "hard-sell" me every new policy that comes about. Rather, Joshua is always open to hear my "never-ending" questions and is very patient to answer and clarify any doubts I have. From the financial plans he proposes, I know he has my family's welfare at heart and we are in good hands! | | | Joey Lim, Media Editor Joshua has been my financial advisor for the last 16 years. Always giving me great advice, and diligently review my policies to make sure they are relevant to my needs. Any time I need help, he is just a call away. He is not only a financial advisor, but a friend too. | | | Jeffrey Choong, Senior Visual Designer Joshua has been a great help as my agent ever since I came to SG. There was 2 major incident that happened in the family, he is always prompt to reply and always ready to help us out. I feel at peace knowing that he will take good care of my insurance matters. I highly recommend him! | | | | |
