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.

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 Staff Nurse

I am a critical illness survivor. As a result I realized how under-insured I was and how difficult it is to get insurance once you have contracted a critical illness. I tried many time over the years and my application was always rejected. I have almost given up until Alexander was assigned to service my policies. He is the difference maker. He reviewed my policies and listened to my story carefully. Then he said to me he can help if I am willing to work with him and provide the necessary reports and documentation. With nothing to lose I agreed. Then of he go to work submit in my case. Over the weeks he deftly handled all the underwriters requirements that showed up. Then one fine day he surprised me with a visit. "Congratulations you got it!!" he said and I couldn't believe my ears. Alex informed me that my critical illness policy has been accepted with standard condition and will only exclude the cancer she had previously. What a breakthrough. I am thankful for Alexander attention to details. For I am convinced if there is way, Alex will be the one to help me to get covered. He is the difference maker.

Palanivelu Hotel Concierge Manager

I have known Alexander only for a short while but he has done a great many service both as an adviser as well as a friend. I have seen him being there to help my late friend's family Michael Chua to go through the difficult and trying times. He made sure all the insurance matters are settle and the family was able to focus on grieving and putting their life back together. He listens to them and help them whenever possible. He even help me with personal problems by finding solutions to resolve them. When I had trouble processing medical claims, he would come over and sort it out and be the key link between himself, the hospital and Prudential. I would be unable to resolve it if Alex had not been there. I know I can count on him to help me understand and resolve the challenges I face. A good agent and friend in times of need.

Alice Eliza Koh, Retiree

I was introduced to Alex by my sister who greatly appreciated his good customer service, detailed explanation, good followup and recommendations, patience and always approachable and who readily make himself available to meet to explain the policy or whatever understanding needed . I found him to be good and wished I had known him earlier so I could be wiser in my purchase of health and fund policies that meet my needs and not the need of the agent for better commission Though busy, he still followup and only 1 call away whenever I have issues to discuss Recently I called for meeting to discuss my Prudential funds and to better understand the recent host of cancer related coverage on the daily news. He not only came to meet promptly upon my call but came prepared with printouts and presentation. I am impressed with his service and has no hesitation to recommend him to whoever are looking for a good insurance consultant/ advisor
