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.

Testimonials and Referral Notes

Hussain | Operations Executive

Thomas is very pleasant to talk to. He is an approachable person who thoroughly explains all available options. He is very clear, concise, and willing to clarify every single query during our discussion. Highly recommended.

Yerim | Researcher

I was referred to Thomas by a friend. As I had just entered the workforce, financial planning was a concept that seemed very foreign to me. Yet, I had a few long-term financial goals set in mind. Thomas patiently listened to my goals, and crafted a portfolio that would help me achieve them. He also explained the policies in detail to me, ensuring that I understood what I was signing up for!

Zhi Wei | Manager

My first impression of Thomas was that he looks very young. However, after our discussion, I've found him to be really proficient. I truly appreciate his continuous effort in pushing for the best terms for me, considering that my case was not so straightforward.

Seline | Financial Consultant

Thomas joined the industry slightly earlier than me, and he has readily offered a helping hand whenever I required his assistance. Even during after hours or over the weekends, Thomas is prompt with his replies and assistance. Beyond being a good-natured colleague, he is also an exceptional friend. Throughout the time that I've known him, he has proven to be an empathic listener who is there for me when times are tough. I have no doubts that these are qualities that will be experienced by his clients as well!

Richard | Private Hire Driver

As a private hire driver, I meet many people with different personalities on a daily basis. Thomas was a passenger that I met a few months ago, and we hit it off instantly. Our conversation lasted for the entire 40-minute journey, and I felt comfortable talking to him as if he is a close friend of mine. Based on our conversation, I could tell that he is someone who has a lot of empathy for others. When we talked about his job, I was sure that his clients are being well taken care of due to his passion to help others and the empathy that he displays towards anyone he meets.

Dinesh | Network Specialist

I first met Thomas when he took over my policies after my previous agent left the industry. I had already forgotten my policy details as they were purchased some time ago, but he was very kind to reach out to me to refresh my memory. Thereafter, he also helped me to do up some policies for my family members, all while being very patient in explaining the details to us and addressing our queries. I'm very thankful for all his help.
