In this issue, I'd like to do something different. All of the highlights are very interesting videos from TED talks about the way we think. The videos are between 15 to 30 minutes, but they are well worth your time I promise. Hope these resources will help create marginal changes in your life every so often. Let's be enlightened together!
The Puzzle of Motivation
Career analyst Dan Pink examines the puzzle of motivation, starting with a fact that social scientists know but most managers don't: Traditional rewards aren't always as effective as we think. Listen for illuminating stories -- and maybe, a way forward.
Behavioral economist Dan Ariely, the author of Predictably Irrational, uses classic visual illusions and his own counterintuitive (and sometimes shocking) research findings to show how we're not as rational as we think when we make decisions.

Wil-son is very sincere and patient. Rather than pressuring me to take on new plans, he give his neutral opinion and advise accordingly based on what he understands about our family needs and priorities.
Every time I reach out to him on queries that I have, he will definitely check on it and get the answers to me.
Though I do not know him for long, he is definitely someone whom I will look for and trust should I need any advice on financial planning!

It's a true blessing to have a user and client like Wil-son and I'm glad to be able to meet him face-to-face after having him onboard with us for the past two years.
From the first interactions over the phone and via WhatsApp, Wil-son proved to be one of the most polite and proactive users that I have come across - always asking me good questions on how best he can utilise and maximise the services on our platform. Not to mention he has a very friendly demeanour too, which I appreciate very much.
Seeing how proficient he's become with the system and how creatively he uses it to deliver value to his own clients, I cannot be more proud and heartened. His positivity and forward-lookingness (if there's even such a word) makes him an asset -- not just to us, but also to his co-workers and his own clients.
Keep shining and wishing you all the very best, Wil-son!

Wil-son is my husband and also our family's financial strategist.
To be honest, I do not like "insurance agents" although I was one myself some years back. I remember how agents always go into telling me how it would be great to start a savings regime and I agree. However, what they didn't tell me is I should probably get a medical plan first so in any event I'm hospitalized, I do not have to burden my family with any medical costs.
My husband believes in starting right with insurance and he helps people manage their money so that having insurance does not becomes a liability.
He feels that people could leverage on insurance to spread their economic risks with the right planning and save them from any unnecessary stress and worries, allowing them to focus on the people they love when they need them.
I would say his value comes from planning with me and not for me.

Wil-son is a very friendly person. He always think of me, the client, on how to further help me for my sake instead of hard selling.
I was impressed by the first meeting with him and felt his difference from other consultants.
He truly cares for me and always put my priority first before his sales.
I really appreciate him for who he is.
Thank you Wil-son for being so awesome!
Clarissa Referred Client since 2019
I have known Wil-son for approximately 5 years. I started supporting Wil-son by getting a investment linked policy from him.
He follows up, by helping me to monitor the funds frequently, and informs me of new opportunities whenever there is one. He is also very willing to share his knowledge about funds and investment.
He also frequently checks in on me and my family, he feels more of a family friend than a financial planner.
Though Wil-son is rather new in the insurance field, he is constantly trying to learn new things. Certain questions that I have asked Wil-son, he answers without biasness, a trait that I seldom see in other agents.
Moreover, Wil-son is very honest, he clearly tells you that he is uncertain when he does not clearly know the answer. He does not just stop there, he will find out more information and give me a detailed explanation.
Wil-son is also not pushy, he starts off by understanding about my situation before advising me on what policies to get. He does not pressure you to get a policy from him, this trait made him stand out as a trusted financial planner.
Wai Fong Retiree Client since 2020
2020 has been a trying year for everyone with the ongoing pandemic, and more so for me. In August 2020, I was unexpectedly hospitalized for the first time in my life (besides pregnancy and childbirth, that is) for appendicitis. I was distressed over my health and hit by the realization that I did not have a hospital plan that could cover my hospital bills.
Given my age, I was also unsure on whether insurance companies would be willing to provide me with the adequate coverage. I was then introduced to Wil-son by my daughter, who went the extra mile to search and analyze insurance policies, before patiently explaining and recommending the most appropriate coverage for me.
I am much appreciative for the patience and support rendered by Wil-son during this difficult period and his sincerity and genuine concern towards his clients.
To me, he is not an agent, but a trusted family friend.
