optimum time management

this year will probably prove to be the most challenging for me in all of my time in the financial industry.

and because God is fair and everyone of us, whatever our status, is alloted the same 24 hours a day to arrange/accomplish our daily schedules. and that's precisely the issue because no one can claim to have lesser or more time in any given day/night.

and that's why time management is imperative to getting the desired results with the same given number of hours to achieving them.

why most challenging for me?

because of the many hats i wear in my role in promiseland independent, the industry and to the community at large.

firstly, as the appointed insurance specialist in promiseland independent where i'm not only accountable to my own team of advisors but there are almost 100 advisers here and they (as well as my clientele) are given the topmost priority in all of my daily waking hours.

and as a fa director, i have my own team of advisors (together with 2 other directors) and they have grown to more than 20 strong and they need me as much as all of the other advisors in my company, in terms of advice, coaching, mentoring, training, etc.

and every month without fail, i have to customise and host training programs for all advisors, be they new or seasoned ones.

on top of all these, i have my part to play in the company's management, jointly with the other directors and managing director of promiseland independent.

and there's the monthly one-to-one coaching session with my advisors which is a mandatory requirement and not to mention, attending monthly product launches, seminars, speaking engagements, etc.

and despite all these, i have given my nod to my good buddy, mr harold toh to contribute financial articles to his new venture starting soon.


my comments:

therefore, as much more is expected from me, i have to learn to optimise and execute optimum time management in my given waking hours which God has alloted to me.

but i'll like to assure readers and consumers that i'll continue to be involved in giving my 2 cents' worth to our insurance principals and actively participate in their focus groups with the objective of designing new insurance products that are not only innovative but will set the standards by which other insurers will sit-up and take notice.

and last but not least, my involvement with both printed and visual media should continue as and when required as a form of continuing education of consumers to shore up their financial quotient.
