As humans, the pursuit of change and progress is something that is innate to every one of us. Like it or not, there will always be things in life that we hope could be a little different, a little better in the way that daily situations & events turn out. It could be in the way we think, speak, or the way we handle everything from our finances to our relationships with others. We seek to become better -- and we should. As we strive to continuously exceed our potential, we rise above all previous versions of ourselves and grow stronger. In this issue, we look at some ways in which we can embrace a better self and an even better future.

The Relentless Pursuit of Improvement

It is no secret that I believe growth is the only guarantee that tomorrow will be better. It is no mystery that I think personal growth is the steppingstone to success for any leader. If you or I want to stay in front of the curve and lead others, then we must do the work that keeps us out front. We must continually improve. But as I seek to improve, there is one thing I know not to chase, and that is perfection. Perfection is a trap. Do not chase perfection as a leader - chase improvement. Make today better than yesterday so tomorrow can be better than today. The relentless pursuit of improvement will take any leader far.

I used to be jealous of other people's wealth and success - here is how I finally got over it

Envy. It is an emotion that we all feel at some point. It is also a really dangerous emotion when we are trying to build a strong financial life. Envy is pure poison to a healthy financial life. After all, envy encourages us to make some pretty poor decisions. Like every other character flaw, however, envy can be overcome. You can directly reduce the envy itself, or you can at least reduce the bad choices you make as a result of envy. Here are seven strategies I use to cut envy out of my own life.

Kai Hong. IT Engineer.

I am writing this testimonial for Tan Jin Wei. He was very detailed in explaining the policy to me. To my surprise, during the financial assessment he did a very detailed calculation for me. Which I can say no financial consultant will include a monthly assessment of your financial situation with debt and without debt. Most of them will only assess the annually calculation and does not consider whether each month will you be able to afford the premium of the insurance you are paying for. Due to that I have transferred my current policies from prudential to him to manage. In the near future I am intending to manage my new policy as well as he really is a trusted financial consultant that look after my well being.

Alvin Toh.Finance Trader.ALV Financial Pte Ltd.

Jia Jun has been a close friend of mine for 17 years. Before he became a financial consultant, I knew little about financial planning. I had the most basic of life insurance plans and all my savings were in either self-chosen stocks or the bank. It was a tedious process choosing the right assets to buy and timing the market right and it would have been better to allocate some of my assets to a more passive form of investment. Jia Jun helped me upgrade my insurance for a more extensive coverage. He also helped me in choosing my investment plans, meticulously explaining every detail and nuance between the many different plans out there. Jia Jun is very professional and dedicated to his job and helping his clients. When i injured my eye in an accident, he took care of everything. He helped me with the filing of my report and I just had to hand him the receipts for my medical bills and everything was settled quickly. With him as my financial planner, I have a peace of mind knowing I can call on him anytime I have queries about insurance and financial planning matters.
