| 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.

Thank you Steven for being there whenever I call and I look forward to your support for many years more to come. | |  | | Jane Law Steven is very professional, patient and helpful.
He is tireless. Always willing to explain and answer questions pertaining to my queries and claims.
Steven treats his clients like good friends, always go that extra mile when help is needed most.
Really appreciate your friendship.
Thumbs up to Steven! | |  | | 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." | |  | | Lye Seng Kai, Executive Director, Totex International Limited Steven has been my family insurance and financial adviser for more than a decade and the level of service, knowledge and professionalism we received from him is unparalleled.
He is attentive to details and very patient to take the extra miles to explain the different options and make excellent recommendations to my family so we can have an all rounded coverage.
His service is customized and very personal especially to one that is unfamiliar with the insurance procedure. I’m convinced through the years that he is not out to make quick and easy money but always has our interest in his mind.
Unlike some others who try to push their policies to you, he lets you decide at your own pace.
Thank you very much for the great service, Steven.
| |  | | Pak-Tjun Chin I got to know Steven through a mutual friend back in Nov-2019. Being a foreigner new to Singapore, Steven warmly welcomed me into his weekly hiking sessions at Bt Timah Forest Reserve. Since then, we have been religiously 'conquering' Bt Timah hill. More recently, we even extended our hike to start from MacRitchie Reservoir. Steven's motto is 'What is impossible today, will become warm-up tomorrow', and he truly believes in this!
Separately, I have also grown to trust Steven with my insurance needs. Being new and alone in Singapore, I knew that having appropriate insurance coverage is paramount. Steven was very detailed and thorough in his briefing sessions and provided me coverage options that suited my needs. No pushy sales or pressure. I would strongly recommend Steven to anyone looking for an experienced, authentic and straight-taking insurance advisor. | |  | | 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! | | | | |
