The Gift of Paying It Forward

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.

I began following Sabrina on Instagram, which is when I discovered her role as a financial advisor. Her friendly and approachable nature was evident through her social media posts. This led me to contact her for advice on additional protection plans for my husband and me. Sabrina's assistance was invaluable, and I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking insurance guidance. Thank you, Sabrina—I'm grateful to have connected with you!

Hi Sabrina, thanks for taking time to meet up with me and understand what I’m lacking for my family’s insurance. Thanks for being patient and explain all my queries. Will recommend friends to get policies from you 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💖

Can’t exactly recall when i started following Sabrina in instagram, but it should be before Kaisor is born. Been a silent follower and enjoyed her contents and real personality shown in all her posts and stories. Through her online sharing, it gives me the comfort and assurance that i could approach her for my next insurance/investment profile. And bingo, she totally fit the bill. From our 1st to the 3rd (where we confirm on the investment profile) meeting, she has shown her professionalism, friendly nature, good knowledge, and understanding my needs and capability in serving the premium. What you see is what you get through her online postings. Thank you for leading me to a better future. Thank you so much, Sabrina. ❤

I know ShiWei since Secondary school. Knowing she is in this line for more than a decade, I reached out to her for financial advice. She is knowledgeable and clear in her explanation. As a mother of 2, she recommended plans she bought for her children to me and I followed her recommendations. Happy to reconnect with you!

I met Sabrina last year through a friend referral and also recently, got some new inputs on what's available in the market. She is a patient lady and makes it a point to contact clients proactively and explain any new useful financial products. It's good to know new financial products in the market that's relevant to our needs when we are at different stages of our lives. Sabrina was helpful to explain what is useful depending on the client's profile - whether for self or legacy needs. Thanks Sabrina 😊
