In life, there are days and moments where everything we do does not feel enough, or face situations that are beyond our control. A common response to such instances is to doubt ourselves and our abilities, and that is a very normal and human thing to do. But the effect of self-doubt can cut both ways: It can either spur us to achieve our goals and thereby boost our confidence levels, or cause us to feel entirely powerless and paralysed. Fortunately, whether we allow it to work for or against us is mostly up to us. In this issue, we will explore the ways in which we can harness self-doubt to build confidence -- one step at a time. | Moving from Self Doubt to Self Confidence It would be nice if moving from self doubt to self confidence just came naturally. However, moving from self doubt to self confidence is a practice you can adopt, with practice. When you are able to identify where your insecurities lie and what is stopping you from feeling confident, you can then start the process of moving from self doubt to self confidence. You will be able to work on eliminating the blocks that are keeping you from moving through life with assuredness. Here are some of the culprits for the patterns of self doubt and ideas for what you can do about them. | Why confidence and knowledge can lead to smart money decisions Two common areas that cause people to procrastinate financially are knowledge and confidence. Logically, we know that financial literacy can boost our confidence to make informed money-management decisions. Yet, many people tell me that they lack the confidence to learn and absorb that financial knowledge, which holds them back. However, everybody is capable of effectively managing their money. While some need mindset adjustments, others need a confidence boost or a little reassurance that they are on the right track. Take small steps, follow and when doubt starts to creep in, remind yourself that money is only a tool and you are learning. | 9 Habits That Are Destroying Your Confidence | Proudly Brought to You I seek to reach out to people who believe in safeguarding the interests of their loved ones.

Thumbs up to 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. | | | Tasnim, Healthcare Professional When I wanted to apply for an insurance in 2020, I had zero knowledge and understanding about how insurance works then and what type of insurance will benefit me.
After knowing Steven, he cleared all my doubts, helped me understand better about my protection & savings needs and recommended policies which help me while ensuring that the solutions suit both my needs and budget.
Overall, Steven is a good agent who will is always prompt when I have any queries or need his help.

He will tirelessly explain clearly and allows clients to clarify, as well as give them critical information. | | | Harsh Verma Executive Director JPMorgan Chase & Co I have known Steven for almost 2 decades and have seen him grow over this period. His success can be mainly attributed to his high level of professionalism, his impeccable customer service and his constant availability. He knows my family profile, has been recommending products that suit my needs based on family members, age, etc and does not coax me into unnecessary sales.
Every product he has recommended to me has yielded me benefits over time. The one aspect that definitely needs to be called out is his availability. After all these years and his personal growth in the industry he is available within seconds of sending him a message. Whether we are traveling or he is, I have never had to wait for a turnaround from Steven. He always maintains a very friendly, yet professional interaction and goes out of his way to build a relationship with my family. No matter how trivial the question, he maintains a high level of patience to guide my family and me to the right outcome.
In spite of all this he somehow manages to maintain a very healthy lifestyle. Not only does he do this for himself but he has a special gift to influence and has made my family more involved in running, trekking, etc towards staying fit and healthy.
I would recommend Steven to anyone without an ounce of doubt. His attitude, professionalism and friendliness is unparalleled. | | | | |
