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.

Aimson, Hotel Manager

I started off this insurance policy with my colleague’s wife initially. I’m quite skeptical about Insurance Agents as they gave me impression of “hard selling”, “constant calling” not for updates but to sell new policies to you or leave u “unattended” once u sign on the dotted line. At first, I was quite worried when my colleague told me my account will be handing over to another Insurance Agent, as I’m not sure if I am able to communicate freely with her. Things changed the day I met Joo Chin in real life. First impression that I’ve got for Joo Chin: She’s not afraid to voice out what coverage you need but do not have. Joo Chin is an insightful, broad minded, truthful, dutiful & sociable agent 😀 . To be exact, she’s more like a “caretaker”of your personal benefits rather than a normal Insurance Agent on the street. Years down the road with Joo Chin as my Insurance Agent, she never fails to keep track and provide constant updates of my policies. Yes, like most agents, she will definitely promote or try to update what are the potential addition we should have. But most importantly she does not “hardsell”. She ensures that she shares all benefits of having the policy and she leaves the decision entirely to you. Long story short, Joo Chin is definitely someone you can rely on. Rest assured that she is not like those agents out there just trying to sell their products and leave u in no man’s land once u sign on the dotted line. Instead, she ensures you are well taken care of because she does not want any of her clients to suffer the same experience as her beloved mom.

Syafiqah, Laboratory Technician

Joo Chin understands my needs and expectations. I love it when she patiently explains the policy to me, making sure I understand them. One thing I like about her is, she is not pushy. I always get turned off by agents who are pushy. But she’s not. She accommodates to the policy that I NEED based on my occupation/ personal life. Overall, she’s someone I trust and believe in.

Evon, Business Development Manager

With Joo as a financial planner, I feel assured that my best interest is taken care of. She keeps me posted of any news that impact my policies and even looks out for better alternative options years after my policy has been bought. I really appreciate her level of service and dedication. Highly recommended because she truly cares!

Winnie, Policewoman

Joo Chin is patient in her explanation and makes the effort to do deeper research to address to our doubts instead of just providing an answer just for the sake of it. I also appreciate her making the extra effort by compiling a list of our insurance – that consists of detailed information of each policy, just for our easy reference.

Sharon Yuen, Executive Assistant

Ms. Joo Chin has been providing us with such professional and efficient service since I first engaged for my family insurance a couple of years ago. She has always responded to our requests quickly. Kudos to her extra effort, responsive, professional service, excellent job done to complete my policy. Will highly recommend it to all who want to consider buying any kind of insurance. No hard sell from her as she genuinely proposed the right policy to cater to your needs! Overall, thumbs up!!

Seri, Admin Executive

Joo Chin is not only my insurance agent, she is my ex school mate and ex colleague turned good friend. We connected instantly due to similar vibes. I was in the hands of a seriously pushy and judgemental agent previously. As soon as I found out Joo Chin is from the same insurance company, I asked if she was willing to take over my policies. Of course this is an added administative work for her as she does not gain any commission from me. However due to her kindred spirit, she readily accepts my request. We have come a long way since. Joo Chin is not just my agent or friend, she is like family. She is not judgemental, she listens and gives wise advice. She promotes products but will never be pushy. She is really hardworking and disciplined. She keeps track of my investment progress and gives me timely updates. I love how she is an agent with a heart. She thinks of my mum during Mothers' Day and sends flowers. She even helped me promote and supported my little home baking business while I was unemployed. She is someone I feel at total ease with. Trustworthy, hardworking, disciplined, organised and wise 🥰
