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.

So generally speaking, buying an insurance policy these days is not a difficult task. However, I found that having an financial consultant that listens to me, that accurately identifies my needs, that understands me and provides me with the right vehicles to secure my future, is an extremely daunting task.
Fortunately, I found a planner that has all the above traits and is a very hard worker; Lata Shamdasani.
I have recently purchased insurance policies through Lata. She explained to me in detail, the different offers from different perspectives. Very honestly, Lata explained to me what was covered and -more importantly- what was not covered.
I know that Lata has put forth a lot of effort and time to compile a policy that suits my needs. I am
truly grateful for all the help and knowledge Lata has provided and I know that Lata will be a great
help to anyone who wants to secure their future. | | | Nazreen. Teacher I reminisced the time when I met Lata at the most unexpected place - an acquaintance's birthday party. It was a very good coincidence to meet a financial planner at the right timing in my life.
Lata has shown such genuine care and concern when I told her about my new marital status - freshly divorced and a mother to 2 young lives.
I was not financially savvy so I listened with full focus when Lata started to give advice about my high maintanence car. 'Sell it, Naz.. Or scrap it. You can save much more.' That was the first advice she gave. I heeded her advice. That eased my financial burden a lot. The next thing for my financial freedom was to settle all credit card debts, which I did. I couldn't be more thankful to Lata for the golden advice. She is always offering her help in anything that she sees she can do. The biggest change Lata had for me was to relook at my medical plan I had covered. She was there for me advising me even though I had an insurance policy covering my hospitalisation. It is certainly rare to have someone guide you unconditionally when you need it at the right time right place. Lata was the right financial advisor for me.
Eventually she also looked into my children's well being and chose the best option for their medical care policies and education too. I am so grateful for Lata and I would strongly recommend her to anyone who needs genuine advice and wisdom in financial planning . Thanks to Lata, I am able to manage my finances better and carve a more stable future planning for my 2 young lives. | | | Alicia Ng I recently moved back to Singapore after 9 years and getting insured was a big priority. After dealing with various insurers and independent financial consultants, I was left frustrated and confused, until I met Lata. What struck me the most was her ability to truly listen to my needs, and her passion and determination in helping me find the right solutions. Lata has been professional, punctual, consistent, genuinely warm, caring and empathetic throughout our journey, and we have become friends along the way. She really knows her stuff and I am now happily insured, and feeling much more secure about my future. It is not an understatement to say that Lata has helped me sleep better at night and I highly recommend her and Prudential for all your financial needs. | | | Sunita Venkataraman, Senior Vice President & Group Head, Research & Insights Lata has been a friend and my wealth planner for about 8 years now. I really enjoy my sessions with her since she is really well read and stays updated on markets and the global economies. Her suggestions are never given lightly and she always provides options that we discuss and then decide. She is always available to me and her other clients, and if ever I need her urgently, she always finds the time to meet with me. She's one of the warmest, kindest people I know and is always thinking about what's best for her clients, even at personal cost to herself. I would recommend Lata's services to anyone without hesitation. | | | Nibedita Khandai. Customer Experience Specialist. Agoda Special Note for u Lata-
