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.

Alexander is caring, detailed and meticulous in his ways to support his client and friends. I was very lucky that he came to do a review for me when he did. In a short time he not only reviewed the many policies I had, he quickly and clearly surfaced to me that I had no hospital coverage of my own. From this incident and also from knowing Alexander for years, I know I can count of him and his analytical mind to offer insight and surface any gaps and issues on any financial matters.

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.
