| 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.

I have been bombing him with questions to and fro before finalising my decision. But he was very patient and attentive to my needs.
I signed my first policy with him without feeling any pressure and was given ample cooling time to decide. After a couple of years, he still consistently make the effort to engage and follow up on my well-being. He always put customers and their well-being before anything! | | | | Sera Client since 2020 I have known him as my colleague in my previous workplace several years ago whereas afterwards, I got to know that he went on to pursue his career in Manulife.
Buying the right insurance is important. However, the hardest part other than buying the right insurance is finding a suitable agent who can be transparent with you.
Which I am glad I got to know Wil-son, he takes the effort and time to explain and chart up a comparison between products which is helpful.
It is a privilege to have him as my insurance agent. I will recommend people who are keen in insurance to look for him. | | | | Wai Fong Retiree Client since 2020 2020 has been a trying year for everyone with the ongoing pandemic, and more so for me. In August 2020, I was unexpectedly hospitalized for the first time in my life (besides pregnancy and childbirth, that is) for appendicitis. I was distressed over my health and hit by the realization that I did not have a hospital plan that could cover my hospital bills.
Given my age, I was also unsure on whether insurance companies would be willing to provide me with the adequate coverage. I was then introduced to Wil-son by my daughter, who went the extra mile to search and analyze insurance policies, before patiently explaining and recommending the most appropriate coverage for me.
I am much appreciative for the patience and support rendered by Wil-son during this difficult period and his sincerity and genuine concern towards his clients.
To me, he is not an agent, but a trusted family friend. | | | | How Chih Wah Trading Representative (Remisier) I know Wil-son since primary school, really can't deny his care towards friends and all those who know him.
I think he will be the right person for this career that he is undertaking, you will surely get the kind of attention that you would probably can't get from anyone.
For example, I have not been in touch with Wil-son for a long time, he will still remember my birthday and surely to send my Birthday wishes.
So, vouch his level of care for those he knows. | | | | Clarissa Referred Client since 2019 I have known Wil-son for approximately 5 years. I started supporting Wil-son by getting a investment linked policy from him.
He follows up, by helping me to monitor the funds frequently, and informs me of new opportunities whenever there is one. He is also very willing to share his knowledge about funds and investment.
He also frequently checks in on me and my family, he feels more of a family friend than a financial planner.
Though Wil-son is rather new in the insurance field, he is constantly trying to learn new things. Certain questions that I have asked Wil-son, he answers without biasness, a trait that I seldom see in other agents.
Moreover, Wil-son is very honest, he clearly tells you that he is uncertain when he does not clearly know the answer. He does not just stop there, he will find out more information and give me a detailed explanation.
Wil-son is also not pushy, he starts off by understanding about my situation before advising me on what policies to get. He does not pressure you to get a policy from him, this trait made him stand out as a trusted financial planner. | | | | Joan Tong Associate Manager, Heartzmail It's a true blessing to have a user and client like Wil-son and I'm glad to be able to meet him face-to-face after having him onboard with us for the past two years.
From the first interactions over the phone and via WhatsApp, Wil-son proved to be one of the most polite and proactive users that I have come across - always asking me good questions on how best he can utilise and maximise the services on our platform. Not to mention he has a very friendly demeanour too, which I appreciate very much.
Seeing how proficient he's become with the system and how creatively he uses it to deliver value to his own clients, I cannot be more proud and heartened. His positivity and forward-lookingness (if there's even such a word) makes him an asset -- not just to us, but also to his co-workers and his own clients.
Keep shining and wishing you all the very best, Wil-son! | | | | |
