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.

Jude Lim, Medical Social Worker

I met Ken at a roadshow – I’m not someone who enjoys getting approached by insurance agents, but he was patient and kind, not pushy about just selling products. Three years on, he is a trusted advisor and friend. He plans for me at my pace, and I feel comfortable enough to communicate openly with him about my financial needs and goals as they evolve. During the more intense seasons of the COVID pandemic, I can fully focus on other aspects of my life such as work, fully trusting that Ken is taking care of my portfolios and plans. If you’re looking for anyone to provide financial advice that you can relate to, Ken’s your guy!
