| 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.

My director, Emily, is a dedicated and heartwarming superior. She is genuine in helping her agents and does it wholeheartedly without complains. Be it underwriting status or claims, just a word from us and she will go all out to seek answers for our queries.
Emily’s vast experience in this industry makes her a great mentor to her agents. Her sincerity coupled with the amount & depth of attention that she give her clients are valuable traits that she passed down to us. Because of her strong emphasis on servicing, we naturally strive to be responsible consultants for our clients.
Our job is not always smooth sailing as we have to constantly deal with rejections and sometimes difficult clients. However, with a supportive team and passionate leader, work becomes much more enjoyable! | | | | Peter TeoFinancial Services Manager, Prudential Hi Everyone,
Emily has been there with me since the beginning. Till date I am already 15 years in the career, thus we have worked with each other for a long time. She has always inspired me with her generosity, letting me realized there is so much more in giving than taking. This attribute has helped me progress well in this career and thus I will say Emily has been an integral part in my growth.
She has always been frank with the people she deals with and that helps a lot in shaping many of us who are under her watch. On a personal note, she cares about my family as well and not just the career and I appreciate a lot for this caring side of her.
Looking forward to future interactions with Emily in the years ahead. Thanks Emily for being there for me all this while :) | | | | Lim Ee AiHome Maker Hi Everyone,
Emily is very professional and knowledgeable in her work of field, always there to help and advise when we need her.
I went for my cataract operation in November 2022 and she was the one helping me sourced for Doctor and even accompany me to the consultation, very grateful to her!
All of our family members have policies with her, when insurance is concern, she's the one to approach, no second thought!
She is such a kind-hearted, caring, generous and empathetic person, very eager to lend a helping hand for those in need! We are very happy to have her taking care of our insurance matters! | | | | Evelyn Lui Wan ThengClerical, Ngee Ann Polytechnic Hi Everyone,
I have a very good relationship with Emily. Her ever-ready helpful, kind & positive attitude has always provided me & my families’ members with her First Class service. I have decided to engage Emily as my financial planner cause I have witnessed how she will always go thru the extra-mile to assist all of my other families members especially from being there with them during those final moments till processing the claims. I truly appreciate the speed all my claims were processed so far especially when I had a fracture 3 years ago. Not forgetting the off-&-on TCM treatment claims for my lower back injury, incurred from a fall at home too.
She also helped me with my travel baggage claims when my luggage was damaged at the airport on one of my holiday trips couple of years ago. Hence I strongly recommend Emily for your financial planning as she has me & my family best interest at heart. | | | | Jennifer KohAdministration Hi Everyone,
I am very grateful to Emily for saving my life way back in 2010. I remembered on that fateful day I was feeling very sick and the GP ordered me to admit to A&E immediately, but not sure of which hospital to go to. I gave a call to Emily and she straight away drove to my office and picked me up. Before heading to SGH A&E, she insisted that I should have my lunch first. She accompanied me thru the registration at the A&E. Next thing I landed up in hospital for next 2 months. Doctor mentioned that I was saved in the nick of time as I didn't know I was critically ill. On that day, Emily liaised with my kids on where I was and arranged for them to visit me on the next day.
I had since entrusted my children and myself in her care knowing that she will be ever ready to take care of me and my family. Thanks Emily! You are always so helpful and willing to go extra mile for others. You are awesome!
