can I pretend that airplanes are shooting stars?

it has been a challenging career. just the other day i was in Penang, Intel Worksite Mktg. we had a booth about Will Writing. i seriously didn't know estate planning is so important, imagine the horror when you have a freak accident, died, and all your assets and properties got freezed? oh... the tragedy.

hearing stories about death claims, people with brain tumour, and most recently a lecturer with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), and how they have benefited from insurance, it gives me so much pride being in this industry.

the industry's a classic case of not knowing the pain when you are not in the shoes, walking on that road.

very few people focus on the protection, people often sell savings plan. you know why? savings plan is hassle free (or so they claim.. simple, agents do not service the client, push them to deal with the company. which is not correct, btw), hits the production goals faster, and the agent gets to go for overseas trips, with just a few big fishes. people don't talk in the 'coverage and protection' language. they sell in terms of 'give me your money, i help you make more money'. this reality makes my job so much tougher. BUT i will survive! you need to hear me loud and clear on this. i will survive.
