| When was the last time you received kindness from somebody? When was the last time you extended an act of kindness to someone else, and to what end? As it turns out, there can be tremendous merits and outcomes in paying forward a kindness received with a good deed to somebody else, especially when done out of gratitude. The concept of "Paying It Forward" is nothing new, but in our world, I believe we could do with more compassion and selflessness as it brings out the best in us. | | The Art of Paying it Forward Without Spending a Dime When we pay it forward we commit an act of selflessness that transcends our connection to other humans on the planet, elevating the human experience in a positive way. Whether it’s a showing of kindness, faith, or even compassion, it all makes a difference and can potentially trigger a chain reaction of reciprocated behavior. | | The Power of Altruism Classical economics adopts a model that says people are primarily driven by material self-interest. Political science assumes that people are driven to maximize their power. But this worldview is clearly wrong. In real life, the push of selfishness is matched by the pull of empathy and altruism. This is not Hallmark card sentimentalism but scientific fact: As babies our neural connections are built by love and care. We have evolved to be really good at cooperation and empathy. We are strongly motivated to teach and help others. | | The Paying it Forward Paradox | Wayne Baker | TEDxUofM  | | Proudly Brought to You I seek to reach out to people who believe in safeguarding the interests of their loved ones. Let me know if I can be of help to someone you know or care about. We can make a difference to lives when it matters most.

© Steven Sit Poh Sang, All rights reserved. | |  | | Legal & Claims Manager AAL Shipping Steven was recommended to me by a work colleague, when I moved to Singapore about 2 years ago.
Admittedly, before meeting Steven, I had trouble finding an insurance consultant that was able to provide me with, what I believed to be, good unbiased advice.
His friendly approach and knowledge of the insurance terms convinced me to work with Steven straight away. Steven is very professional and always on hand to assist with any of my enquiries. His attention to detail is a great asset and he will go beyond the call of duty to help his clients.
Most importantly, having Steven take care of my insurance needs gave me peace of mind which is something I cherish dearly. You know you are in good hands with Steven!

| |  | | Ching Eng This is a long overdue note to a fantastic individual.
I know Mr Steven Sit for more than 20 years when we were both in same military NS unit. He was already in the early success then and he led an extravagant lifestyle at that time.
Therefore it was not surprising that he barely made it in the annual fitness assessment and I remembered laughing at him sarcastically.
Well, he has since transformed into a big enthusiast in wellness activities (ask him for the pic full of run event medals) and more importantly, with a transformed personality.
Through the engagements at personal and financial planning levels, Steven is always a call or a text away. He is passionate in life and always shared the best and relevant products with those he connects. There is no selling, just sharing.
In a complex situation, I remembered telling him I shall take it up with his management as I fully aware it was beyond him but he still represented me to escalate till a closure.
Steven’s transformation is an inspiring and good learning model to me. I have benefitted a lot by applying his philosophy of “Law of Attraction”
Have a chat with Steven! He is my friend, my life coach and by the way - he is my financial advisor!
Thanks Steven! | |  | | Loh Soi Min I bought a simple Travel Insurance from Steven as I was going on a Everest Base Camp trek.
I was totally impressed by the level of commitment and service provided. I had to be evacuated on the way down after a fall. As we had to contact AIG for approval for the medical evacuation, I messaged Steven and his response to my questions were quite immediate, giving me the necessary numbers and items claimable each time a message is sent.
This no doubt helped me to get the necessary approvals quickly and I was evacuated within 24 hours. For a small value policy, Steven has shown that he has his clients' interests at heart and can be trusted fully. He is definitely someone whom I would consider as my financial adviser. | |  | | June Ang, Director AON
I met Steven when I was an underwriter in AIG more than 10 years ago. During that period, he was not my appointed Life agent yet but I was impressed with his proactiveness and diligence. Subsequently, Steven was appointed as my personal agent. Steven continues to be an impressive financial advisor. He also extends his assistance as a personal friend. He is a trustworthy agent and friend, a person whom I would definitely give a "thumbs up." | |  | | Theng Soo Ting I met Steven many years ago and have seen him grown into a highly successful professional because he believed in his cause.
He is highly diligent, humble and caring. He also later became my family insurance consultant and a family friend. Steven is highly professional and his belief on why he is in the profession resonates with me, the reason why I trust him completely and will not hesitate to take his advice as I know it will be to my family’s interest.
He is contactable wherever he is and his level of commitment to clients is indeed commendable. Never once have I doubted that he will respond swiftly whenever I have a difficult question for him – and he always will have an answer almost instantaneously.
| |  | | Lai See Siong, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Director, Manufacturing & Process Steven has been providing excellent insurance counseling and advice for my family and I for years. He is very knowledgeable in his profession. He is patient in explaining the details and answering questions pertaining to our insurance needs.
On a personal note, Steven treats his clients as good friends too. He organizes regular healthy activities like cycling, running, and encourages his clients to join in so as to keep a healthy lifestyle and at the same time to network. In fact, many of his clients are now my friends too.
I would highly recommend his services to anyone who is looking for a 5-star Insurance agent. | | | | |
