| 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.

I am a non believer of insurance due to bad experiences in my early years. I steer clear when I hear the word insurance. However, Jacq changes everything.
She is not just my trustworthy agent, she is also a friend. Jacq is patience in listening to your needs and gives you timely and the best professional advices for you and your family.
Jacq is highly efficient and always there when you need her. She is extremely helpful, caring, attentive, always with a smile and very knowledgeable in her expertise of work.
Undoubtedly, Jacq is the BEST insurance agent one could ever have, and a true gem in this industry.
You never know how good your insurance and agent are until you need them, and both are outstanding in my case. | | | | Christine Yue, Founder of Lor Bak Mama & Business Consultancy (Client since 2012) Jacqueline has been a close personal friend for over 20 plus years. When I knew she was going into financial planning, I did not hesitate to go with her as my agent and have never looked back since.
Jacq is caring, responsive and goes out of her way for clients. I have recommended many friends to her over the years.
Now she helps me with my child's policy and I am very thankful I have someone trusted with me all these years. She is my no. 1 agent and a great personal friend that you can trust wholeheartedly.
| | | | Irene, Kenny & Family, Business Owner (Client since 2006) Jacqueline or rather Jia, I prefer to call her. We been friends for 30 over years and she has been my agent for more than 20 years. She helped me with my financial investments and the investments done, have helped me to claim my 1st title deed from HDB. When we started our family, we entrusted her with our all our insurances for our family. Not saying this because she is friend but she has done many things beyond what a friend or agent can or have done.
Once our whole family were out for overseas trip, our gate decided to malfunction and open on its own! We only know it at 12midnight that our house is wide open, unattended, I called her to help and immediately she dashed out of her house (after a long day of work and already in her PJ preparing for bedtime) to rush to mine to help us to lock the gate!
She had also attend to my crazy midnight or dawn break last minute insurance requestsssss.. helped to design and build insurance plans that are within our comfortable budget. Most importantly she grow with our family.
Thank you for being so dependable and reliable! I promise more last min requests and crazy stuff for you and counting! | | | | Lida & Family, Owner of 169 May Fish Soup (Client since 2016) My best friend recommended Jacqueline to me. As I have existing medical condition she still help me to appeal and got my hospital insurance. She listens to me, plan insurance for me and my family within my budget. Whenever my family need advice on medical issues she is always available, when come to claim she keep everything simple for us. She is a excellent agent and a very good friend for us. | | | | Sharon Eng, Administrator (To 20 years before (I think!), and 30 years more. I cannot remember when I started with Jacqueline but I will focus on the recent years.
She has been nothing but heartfelt during my cancer stint. Her concern for her customers always stem from her heart. Her tenacity to make sure we are well taken care of in times of personal needs goes beyond selling insurance.
When my father passed in 2022, Jacqueline was again there for me, helping me sort out insurance issues with the hospital so I can focus on the living and giving me time to grieve.
Once again in later 2022, I had to go through a minor surgery and she took it upon herself to find me a suitable surgeon and followed through with claims and her personal touch of “after care”.
I have more memories of how she touched my heart but I will save them for future testimonials.
Agents are a dime plenty, but it is AIA’s honour to have someone like Jacqueline on their team.
Thank you Jacqueline.
