A Monthly Curated Newsletter

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.

SEB. Marine Industry

Aside from her technical knowledge of the product and attentiveness to my financial goals, I appreciate how she had never been pushy in selling me anything. This puts me at ease. I am able to openly share with her problems that I face in my financial planning and she never fail to give me logical advice. This gave me a lot of confidence that her solutions would only bring me closer to what I aim to achieve. I am grateful and would highly recommend that you meet her too!

Yan

Angela displayed patience and commitment at understanding my current situation and projected needs before recommending suitable products for my consideration. She is also open to discuss my honest thoughts on each product and most importantly is not pushy as with the stigma associated with financial planners. I truly enjoyed the whole process and would recommend Angela wholeheartedly even if it's to understand more on your current financial situation and how it will affect you 20-30 years down the road.

Marie Wang

Angela is a financial advisor who has excellent work ethics and values. She is one of the most sincere, other-centered and trust worthy professionals I've met. Her recommendations are always reflects her clients wishes or better. I cannot emphasize how respectful she is of my desires. She understands my woes and has invested a lot of time explaining and ensuring I am well informed before committing to a decision, leaving me much more educated in this field that before. I feel understood and safe trusting her with my financial plans. My experience with her has been no less than best!

I thought I share a little about my wonderful experience with Angela as my consultant. The experience thus far has been a very enjoyable one. Not only is Angela knowledgeable and confident in what she advises on, she’s very patient and understanding. She’s willing to take the time to explain (again and again) what I cannot understand, and to try different ways of approaching the subject that will help me get a better grasp of what I need to know. More importantly, Angela does not judge and she gives you the space you need. No matter your circumstance or preparation (or lack thereof), she does not make you feel stupid; neither does she push you to do anything you’re not ready to. I also found it very heartening to know that where she might not be the most sure in her answers to my questions, she’s not afraid to tell me she needs to verify her information, than to advise me with potential inaccuracy. I’ve enjoyed gaining a broader understanding of what I need to plan out my life in this aspect, and I hope you will have the same experience as I did!

Shu'ada. Certis CISCO.

Angela is a really good listener and advisor. I'm so grateful I was introduced to her & thus would like to introduce you to her. It's not easy having an insurer who's trustworthy, understands your needs and drive you to what you need instead of what they think you need. She's so patient and kind too. Now I not only gained so much knowledge and understanding, I also gained another friend. Looking forward to more coffee sessions with her. Hehe ☺️ Hope you will enjoy meeting her too!
