Many people have wondered why I join AIA as a Financial Service Consultant. The main reason is because God has called me in this industry to invest in people's lives and to make a difference. And so far, it has indeed been a joy to be in God's will! :)
Its a joy to walk away from meeting clients knowing that their needs for themselves as well as their loved ones are met. All that matters to me is that they walk away happy. That brings me so much more joy than anything in the world can bring!!
I truely dont care about how much i earn. I may not be the top. In fact, I may not even earn much cuz I'll always put myself in my client's shoes and think of what is best for them at the most affordable price!
I guess the basis of all these is that i just love people. I love serving people. I love to care for others,I love seeing their happy faces, knowing that if anything happens to them, everything will be taken care of.
And all these are things that money can never buy, yet these satisfies the soul more than all the money in the world.
Therefore, my friends, this is why i've been called to this industry. To love. To serve. To be the salt and light. To make a difference.
This story is my motivating factor...
The Starfish Story
Original Story by: Loren Eisley
One day a man was walking along the beach when he noticed
a boy picking something up and gently throwing it into the ocean.
Approaching the boy, he asked, “What are you doing?”
The youth replied, “Throwing starfish back into the ocean.
The surf is up and the tide is going out. If I don’t throw them back, they’ll die.”
“Son,” the man said, “don’t you realize there are miles and miles of beach and hundreds of starfish?
You can’t make a difference!”
After listening politely, the boy bent down, picked up another starfish,
and threw it back into the surf. Then, smiling at the man, he said…
"I made a difference for that one.”
So friends i urge you, do not serve money. There can never be enough money.
Find out who you are. God has made everyone unique. Knowing who we are, will help us to find out what we are made to do.
Life is like a jigsaw puzzle. There are so many pieces but only one piece fits.
I know that God has given me specific gifts to serve others. And its a joy to know that this piece of my life fits perfectly into my jigsaw puzzle.
Do not conform to the patterns of the world. Dont allow the world to mess up your life, your jigsaw puzzle. There'll always be ppl telling you what you should do and how you should live your life. Although its always good to seek advice. But ultimately, allow God to be your Adviser. He sees the completed puzzle even before it is fixed. He knows which piece should go next. Cuz He knows you!
No one will ever know us better than our Creator!
Knowing what you were made to do, and doing it will bring much more joy than any amount of riches of this world can ever provide!
I know it. Cuz I'm there. :)
Always give without wanting to recieve any rewards.
If someone asks you to walk one mile with him/her, go one more extra mile.
This is how God has loved us. And this is how we should love His people.
