As humans, the pursuit of change and progress is something that is innate to every one of us. Like it or not, there will always be things in life that we hope could be a little different, a little better in the way that daily situations & events turn out. It could be in the way we think, speak, or the way we handle everything from our finances to our relationships with others. We seek to become better -- and we should. As we strive to continuously exceed our potential, we rise above all previous versions of ourselves and grow stronger. In this issue, we look at some ways in which we can embrace a better self and an even better future.

The Relentless Pursuit of Improvement

It is no secret that I believe growth is the only guarantee that tomorrow will be better. It is no mystery that I think personal growth is the steppingstone to success for any leader. If you or I want to stay in front of the curve and lead others, then we must do the work that keeps us out front. We must continually improve. But as I seek to improve, there is one thing I know not to chase, and that is perfection. Perfection is a trap. Do not chase perfection as a leader - chase improvement. Make today better than yesterday so tomorrow can be better than today. The relentless pursuit of improvement will take any leader far.

I used to be jealous of other people's wealth and success - here is how I finally got over it

Envy. It is an emotion that we all feel at some point. It is also a really dangerous emotion when we are trying to build a strong financial life. Envy is pure poison to a healthy financial life. After all, envy encourages us to make some pretty poor decisions. Like every other character flaw, however, envy can be overcome. You can directly reduce the envy itself, or you can at least reduce the bad choices you make as a result of envy. Here are seven strategies I use to cut envy out of my own life.

Oktariana Changi Airport Staff

As an agent, Alex is patient when explaining and does it until I understand. He is also an honest person and more concerned with the benefits of his customers and not just closing the sale. What I like the most in Alex is his patience and honesty. I am very grateful to Alex for helping and supporting us, when my husband passed away and helping me look for a job when I needed to.

Maria Admin Executive Income Insurance

I felt comfortable in dealing my insurance with Alexander. He is knowledgeable on the services. And helpful in meeting my needs in terms of my plans. What I like the most about his services is the dedication he puts on his craft. Anytime, he will respond as promptly as possible. When I was hospitalised, he gave me updates for my coverage, whether its a weekday or weekends. I appreciate all his efforts from the discussion of the plans to my budget and needs. Everyone should meet up with Alexander because insurance is important and need to be prioritised.

Aiza Anti-aging Consultant Wellness

I’ve known Alex Kong for many years. I know he has been through a lot of growing, learning and challenges in his life. Throughout, he’s been gracious, patient and a gentleman. He likes to learn and he likes to share and help others. He has a wonderful ability to grasp and put together his many knowledge of health, investment and insurance and share it simply to add value and benefit to others. I’d highly recommend to give Alex a chance to share with you what he knows. He looks unassuming but his big heart and big head (in him, these are positive traits😁) have always endeared him to his friends and clients.

Alex is a spontaneous & helpful advisor whom will access the client's needs & purpose with the best policy that is relevant to the client. I will vouch that he is definitely great in this area and he let me understand what I am paying for, so that I have the best knowledge of the policies which I had embarked on. I like his sincerity and effort in his work. In my opinion anyone who are in need of a saving plan policy, medical coverage or investments will benefit from Alex's services.

I’ve known Alex for years and he’s someone who cares for the people he knows. He will not hesitate to go the extra mile to help if it’s within his means and I’ve personally benefitted from his help in different aspects of my life over the years. Especially in terms of insurance, I really appreciate his help to push through my case for me as my case was not as straightforward. Thanks for being a great friend and advisor!
