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.

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.

| | | May Cheah With this letter, I'm writing to thank you and appreciate on all insurance knowledge you have provided to me and would like to take this opportunity to thank Jasper Teo from Prudential Singapore.
First of all, I'm so in touch with Jasper's professional and advisory services, as when i was admitted into hospital, he came all the way down and visited me and assist me with all the insurance claims. | | | Farid and Shaheila Family. Sales Executive & Teacher. We got acquainted with Rion through his father, a family friend. His forthcoming and approachable nature makes it very easy for us to ask him questions on insurance and policies, no matter how simple or silly they may be. He’s very professional when it comes to explaining the different jargons, yet he explains them in layman terms which makes it easier for us to understand. When my husband was hospitalised, he made time to pop by for a chat, which goes to show that he goes beyond his call of duty as an insurance agent. He makes time and effort to get to know us better such that we don’t think of him as just our agent, but as a friend. Thank you Rion. For being a great agent, and an even better friend. | | | Soe Min. Airforce Engineer. RSAF. I have known JJ since his RSAF days. He was my superior and one who never fails to take care of his subordinates. Sometimes even to the point of going beyond his duty.
His diligence and dedication in this profession has convinced me to take up certain plans. He is knowledgeable, approachable and very patient. He listens and does his utmost best to find the suitable policy to meet my needs.
I will definitely recommend him to my friends who needs financial advice as he is not a hard seller but someone who serves wholeheartedly. | | | Shaun Teoh.Global Strategist.Samsung Global Strategy Group. JJ is a great friend and financial consultant. He provides unbiased consultation with my family's best interest at heart.
