| 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 is very knowledgeable about his work and is able to explain the policies to me in simple terms. He is a professional individual and has been a dedicated advisor as he shares and reviews my policies regularly. It assures me that my family's policies are also taken care by him. I also had some great advice from him in terms of financial and long term life planning.
Thanks Jerry for the meetup! As well as helping to take care of my family's policies over the years!🙏🙏🙏 | |  | | Hon Van (Accountant, Penta-Chem Services) We first knew Jerry and his team from 2018, they are not only our insurance advisor but also became our friends.
When we have any questions or need any help from them, they will respond to us very quickly, answering all our queries. At the first meetup, my husband and I trust him because of his expertise, his patience and his friendly nature. When any friend ask me about any insurance agent, I am very confident to introduce them to Jerry and his team.
Thank you Jerry and your team for everything. :) | |  | | Francis Tan CEO & Co-Founder Garden Picks Food Manufacturing LLP Jerry have been my go to Financial Advisor for both my business and personal insurance related matters for the last 9 years. Throughout this time, his knowledge and wisdom have helped me and my company build a secure safety net so I can focus on my business and family life with a peace of mind. His team efficiency and service is commendable and I would recommend him to anyone without hesitation.
Keep up the good work!
| |  | | Shi Hua (MOE Educator) I've known Jerry for more than a decade. From ex colleagues to friends, he is someone whom one can count on whenever you need advice. To me and my family, he is not just a financial advisor or your typical agent, he is a friend who is always ready to render his help and of course his expertise in his field of profession to make sure that me and my family are well taken care of in our health protection as well as our financial investments. One thing that sets him apart is that no doubts or worries that I have is ever too trivial for him. To him, what ever matters to us, matters to him and he will try his very best to help! So if u ever need a trustworthy and reliable advisor, Jerry is the man! | |  | | Eunice Chan (Year 3 AIA FSC), ex-Singapore Police Force I met Jerry in 2021 as a manager of my FSC during that time and Jerry amazed me with his meticulous analytical skills and how he provided quality advice for my financial portfolio. Hence, I felt very assured that my friend - whom is also my FSC at that time, found a reliable mentor and manager.
Moving forward a year later, I approached Jerry when I was considering to join the insurance line, and I never looked back ever since. Jerry has been an extremely supportive leader who is always there for me when I needed both contextual and practical guidance for my work. As a new FSC in 2022, the unwavering support Jerry provided me was beyond what I expected him to do. Till today, whenever I needed help, Jerry never says no.
Thank you Jerry for making me conceptualise that I made the right choice for choosing this industry and for choosing you as my manager/mentor. I am looking forward to many more years to working with you and to achieve greater heights! 💯 | |  | | Hong Yang (Year 6 AIA FSC) Ever since I joined Jerry back then in Oct 2017, he has always been a role model that I looked up to in all aspect. Other than being a leader and a father of 3 girls, he is in the Product Committee & ALMA. On top of all these, he is also a producer in AIA. Despite having to handle so many things, he never once turned down his mentees and FSCs that approached him for help. Instead of spoon-feeding his consultants with direct answer, he would guide the consultants by giving them “homework” to do then learn from it. With all the stuffs that he is currently taking on, I am really in awe with his time management, self discipline and mental strength. To me, Jerry defines “Extraordinary”.
“The difference between Ordinary & Extraordinary is that little extra.” | | | | |
